My impression is that the greedy dollar grab in today's rabid multi-national manufacturing dynasties is what wins in the end. There is no such thing as a logical market survey and satisfaction of market desires. It all gets down to bottom line investor satisfaction, not user-in-the-marketplace satisfaction. We don't need no stinking electro gizmos in the end. We need safety and delivery to our desired trip endpoints. Electrogizmos for whatever purpose can be bought in the aftermarket if we desire to remove our attention away from the primary task of getting from point A to point B and back again. I have manual windows, a clutch, manual hole in the roof (which I don't need), and non-working r12 system and the 240D gets me from here to there very well thank you. I have not ever needed airbags, anti-X gizmo, ever in my non hurried driving life. I don't intend to survive if I want to tangle against a 60-inch diameter oak tree, and I don't intend to survive if I don't notice the kenworth. mao _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
