US spec cars

[big x]

I've noticed that US W124's don't seem to have the S and E switch on the gearbox http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1995...55QQihZ004QQcategoryZ6335QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I presume they are in S all the time...Americans do seem to think they have a God given right to pollute the planet ?

U.S. spec cars

We still can't figure out if some "bean counter" at North American Mercedes-
Benz in New Jersey decides what engines,drive train and options are bestowed
upon us here. OR if some Evil Grimlin in Sindelfingen strips all the really neat
stuff y'all get from the available cars we see.

Petrol powered M.B. owners in the U.S. are generally not aware of Global
Warming or automotive pollution concerns.

"Let them drink acid rain" seems to be the general attitude towards themselves and the rest of Humanity.

Remember this is the country that brought mankind the Ford Excursion
(with the Diesel option ....Maybe 11 miles per gallon).
