Has there been a Mercedes Driver Rapture and I'm the only one left behind?

I don't remember reading about this in Revelations!

But....think of all the parts I can glean......

New style plugs. I've never put anything other than Mobil 1 oil into the
crankcase (currently running the Truck / SUV). I am using the charger as a
prophylactic because I often have to run a lot of short trips during the day
(no more than three miles round trip), so the alternator doesn't have time
to recharge the battery fully from all of those pre-glows and engine cranks.
... It doesn't become critical unless the temperature is at or below zero,
so with the temperature in the mid teens I am just being cautious at this
point.
