The site Dan posted a week or so ago (http://tradeinqualityindex.com/) was very convincing - many of the trade ins for Mercedes were much lower mileage than average. Cars with a reputation for longevity, like Toyota Camry or Honda Civic, were traded in later than average. I'm sure there could be a multitude of reasons Mercedes owners would choose to trade early, but it seems like on average they should be traded in along the same distribution as a, say, Lexus - yet they are not. It confirms my bias that there are systemic issues in Mercedes of recent enough vintages to trade in.
