Gotta drive a mercedez before you can prefer a deux chevot. I used to drive mercedez exclusively. After you had driven them for a few years, you realized that other cars were just so much loosely assembled scrap iron without a proper design. You drive a mercedez. You aim and pray with American scrap iron. With a Benz you could take your hands off the wheel at 60 on a level straight road, and leave them off for a full minute. (I used to do this all the time) If the road is in the Northern Hemisphere the car will gradually go off the road to the right from the turning of the wheels underneath the tires of the car.(Coriolis force. .062 degrees per min at 45 deg. N) A ferrari will take seven miles to go off the road. A chev 700 feet. This is because the better supensions keep the tires on the road more. They literally bounce off the road with the cheaper cars. EC<:-}
