The solid state Blaupunkts put in some Mid 60s Mercedes are nice for
AM FM and most have at least one SW band. Use an fm transmitter for
your ipod, and you can have the best of all worlds. NO cd skipping,

Buy a current E-Class. I've never listened to the AM much, but it has
weather band... So I imagine they might have thought of the AM a little bit
more
