Let me first say that I AM a HUGE Mercedes Benz fan. My wife and I both drive them daily and they are the last cars we've bought. Hers is a 1999 and mine is a 2000, both with over 200,000 miles on them. Nothing but oil changes and minor repairs in 18 years. That said, a year ago when we were looking to buy and RV we first looked at all the MB models. Yes they are nice, but most are lacking in storage space and you are VERY limited as far as cargo weight. The chassis is basically maxed out as delivered. There are other drawbacks....generator and towing capacity. We went with a Ford and Forester.
