The more pressing issues seem to be freezing up of drain lines in the -50c weather the past weeks. Folks keep flushing until it all burbles up in the wash tubs. One story was of a poor wench who would drive across town to her work place to use facilities. She grew up in a “dry” cabin with ou

Excellent plan.   Only critique is that you don't mention offsite storage in the event of catastrophe.   And you don't have to tell us...doing so is a security risk. Scott Ritchey via Mercedes January 11, 2020 at 6:39 PM I have an "aps" folder on my NAS where I s

Re: [MBZ] Replacement Key Head for 124

I think the most possible scenario would be your right hand or arm striking that area, and yes that would be a minor concern in such a collision. Point is, other than the price, there is much to like about it, not much to quibble about. Max Dillon Charleston SC Jan 11, 2020 3:19:32 PM Dan Peno

Re: [MBZ] Replacement Key Head for 124

If you’re worried about getting gouged in a collision from the ignition key you’ve got far more issues to be concerned about, I would think. I’m not sure how you could hit or contact the ignition in an impact in a W124. Wouldn’t it be “behind” the steering wheel? I’ve seen those key heads. They
