Overall this car is in very good condition. This vehicle sat for a year before we purchased it. We purchased this car here in Tucson Az a couple months ago and have really intended to do some more work to this vehicle, but we are not in a position to keep this car in good shape as we live in the country and have no garage for it. And really no knowledge of these diesel vehicles. So here it is up for auction. This is what we have done to this vehicle: Changed the oil filter -two gas filters- front brakes vacuum lines and haven taken this car to the Mercedes Benz dealer ship here in Tucson and had the original becker radio reset. This vehicle has a small fuel leak that the dealer quoted us 250.00 to fix and we are just not in financial shape for restoring or repairing a car that deserves more than we can offer. There is a drip on the tranny gasket that is more annoying than anything, and actually we took the underbelly off to see if there were any leaks of any-kind and that is how we found this leak, so at some point the buyer would have to replace that gasket. The car shifts strong and smooth going down the Highway. We added one can of 134 A to a proffessionally retrofitted system and the A/C blows cold and all the climate controls work. We just took it through emissions April 23rd 2013 and the emissions are good for another year, they are required yearly here in az. There is a crack in the dash from az sun as this car has been in az since 2007 and it came from california. This vehicle starts first time every time and drives nice with all electrical components working very good with an operating sunroof. This vehicle needs some things done and would not really take much for the guy or gal that has a little more time, energy, knowledge and money than we do! Seats are in excellent condition and the front seats have seat covers on them in the pictures I pulled them back so you can see. There is a little work to be done with the plastic around console but not bad at all, it is loose. The oil pressure goes right up and stays at 3 when started and goes down to 2-1/2 when at a light. The tranny shifts at the same speed every time but the fluid level should be monitored until the gasket is replaced. This car has antilock brake system and anti-theft device on passenger side under the floor board, for the Becker Radio. This vehicle has all power Door locks and the doors can be opened by using the trunk key as well. The truck need a little adjustment as the az, wind caught it and threw it out of adjustment but still operates as intended. I can hear the antenna motor working but it is not raising the antenna. If you were to puchase this car and drive it home it would need better tires and they are very easy to come by here at the local tire shops, We would love to keep this car and reality tells us we need a truck out here in the country, and classic or luxury cars will have to wait. For right now we drive this car twice a week to go 12 miles into town and 12 miles back for shopping so the miles will reflect that. We have a clean Az, Box A title original miles 228,047 on title. We will have it notorized with you present. Well thank you and any thing else we can tell you that we have not written here we can answer promptly by email. Thank you Al and Kathy

Mercedes Alabama ops ordered to allow workers to discuss unionization
Wed, Dec 3 2014A decision last week by the National Labor Relations Board has bolstered the efforts of the United Auto Workers at Mercedes-Benz's Tuscaloosa, AL factory, as the union continues its attempts to represent the factory's workers. According to Reuters, the NLRB ruled that Mercedes-Benz US International, the proper name of the company behind the Tuscaloosa factory, can no longer prevent workers from discussing unionization in work areas while off the clock. While MBUSI maintains that it's not taking a side on unionization and that it wants the "the decision left to our team members," the UAW is still arguing that the US facility should take the same position on unions that the rest the world's Mercedes-Benz plants take and. Speaking to Reuters, the UAW says that stance "acknowledges the human right to form trade unions" and "respects the right of collective bargaining." According to Reuters, the Alabama factory employs 3,500 workers – 2,500 full time and 1,000 "temporary" – and is the only Daimler-owned factory on the planet not to offer employees the opportunity for representation. Presently, the Tuscaloosa facility assembles Mercedes' C-Class, GL-Class and M-Class vehicles.

Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
Daimler employees can set email to auto-delete during vacation
Mon, 18 Aug 2014The Internet has shrunk the world in terms of the way people communicate by making it possible to send an email from Oslo and have it show up in Cleveland almost immediately. But that instant contact has wrecked the work/life balance for many. They get home from a long day at the office, yet they can never fully put their feet up and relax because another hour or more of checking and replying to emails awaits. However, German automotive giant Daimler is putting an end to that churn, at least while its employees are on vacation.
About 100,000 Daimler employees in Germany are eligible to opt-in to a new program called Mail on Holiday, according to The Atlantic. When the workers go on vacation, they can switch it on, and the service auto-deletes all of their incoming email. "Our employees should relax on holiday and not read work-related emails," said Wilfried Porth, board member for human resources, to The Financial Times as cited by The Atlantic.
Mail on Holiday puts a thumb on the scale of work/life balance in favor of a little more free time. The system means that Daimler employees shouldn't even be tempted to check their email on vacation because there's nothing there - and it also avoids them coming back from a relaxing holiday only to find a mailbox packed full of hundreds of unread messages. These days, people are absolutely obsessed with their work, often to the detriment of their health, not to mention spending time with their families and friends. On one hand, Mail on Holiday sounds like the sort of vacation breakthrough we'd need to truly unplug and unwind, but on the other hand, it makes our skin crawl just thinking about the lack of communication.
