I'm at a little under 100k, and it's still running as smooth as ever. These pre-Daimler Benzes are the only way to go!

We stopped making that specific battery they liked about 2 years ago and I haven't heard the end of it.
Go to most lowrider outings and the majority of guys use our batteries.

lowrider industry wasn't enough demand........they were mainly for commercial trucks the lowrider guys picked them up because they lasted forever and you can toss them around as hard as possible and they wouldn't leak. Wasn't enough profit in them to keep making them and the competition for the truck industry was cheap Chinese shit we couldn't compete with.

That's it for now. I have a ton of suede sitting in my closet and want to do the following:
Suede the headliner (double diamond-stitched), pillars, rear speaker deck, and lower door panels. Possible suede the seat inserts? The only way to do it right though is to keep them perforated
Engine:
ECU tune
Supersprint exhaust
It's a NA 4 banger, so I'm all about the MPGs and lacking in the power. Blessing in disguise?

If/When you change and still want a old school Benz, get a W140 S-class, they're my absolute favorite.
