Mercedes-benz 300cd Turbo Diesel on 2040-cars
San Dimas, California, United States
I recently updated with several additional pictures as requested. Video available upon request... I drive it to the donut shop on weekends and to car shows once and a while, then it's back in the garage, covered up. As you may know these vehicles are known to run 700,000 miles or more if taken care of. It's not very often you find one this nice with low miles that has been so well cared for. One recently sold on Ebay for nearly 25k; it had lower miles, but I felt it was not as well kept as this one. I have owned several of these 300's diesels over the years and have driven a bunch more of them. This one is by far the nicest one I have ever seen or driven. This vehicle is here in Southern California and spends it's life covered up in my garage. If you run the vin on this car, you can pull up the history - it's clean and I was told it was once owned by the Mel Gibson's pilot. Interesting and true story. There is no rust on this vehicle that I can find anywhere. Everything on this vehicle works like it should, everything! You can drive it from Los Angeles to New York and back without any worries. It drives very nice. It's as close to showroom condition as you can get. There are no leaks, drips or crusty oil build up under the vehicle like you see with so many of these old diesels. The positive elements of the vehicle:
Receipts for repairs - I have a stack of receipts - over $14,000 in repairs and maintenance have been done on this vehicle over the years, plus a ton of sweat equity - and it shows. The pics are hard to see, but I can provide a complete list of all the repairs and maintenance records. I do a fair amount of my own simple to moderate repair work. I don't trust or want to pay mechanics with something I can do myself. I use German parts and follow factory specs on everything I do. People say these diesels "run forever". Well they do, but you have to maintain them. This one could be parked at a dealer to show what the "pursuit of perfection" looks like after 30 years. In short, this vehicle will not disappoint. I have a ton of money invested in it. I kept fixing things because I wanted it perfect. Now, I am over my head and the wife is fed up, so it has to go. I have too many cars and not enough money to support them all. Whatever you end up investing in this vehicle, you should get it all back as these coupes are sky rocketing in value. The negative elements of the car:
Special elements to consider: I will pick you up at the Ontario,CA airport and bring you to the car if you want to fly in to see it. If you purchase it with cash. I will consider reimbursing you for part of your airfare. That is how serious I am about the condition of this vehicle. Please contact me if you have any questions at 1- 909-233-4329. If you are outside the United States, I will work with you to get the vehicle shipped. I will take a PayPal deposit of $500 USD within 48 hours after the close of the auction and require the remainder in cash or bank wire within 7 days. The vehicle is being sold "as is" without warranty, expressed or implied, with no returns or refunds. I have done my best to describe the beautiful vehicle accurately. I can provide more information, pics or a video to raise your comfort level about this investment if you need that. I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime for any reason. Thank you, |

CES 2022 was huge for EVs | Autoblog Podcast #711
Fri, Jan 7 2022In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. CES took place this week, and there were some nice electric surprises from automakers, especially General Motors. John has been driving the Ram 1500 Power Wagon, as well as what seems to be its polar opposite, the electric Mini Cooper SE. Greg talks about the differences between the Acura TLX A-Spec long-termer (which is back in the shop) and the Type S loaner that's filling in for it. John's also got some interesting thoughts on leather interiors. Finally, the editors reach into the mailbag and help a repeat customer decide on a suitable replacement for a 2008 Lexus GX 470 in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Mercedes-Maybach GLS prototype caught testing with its big new grille
Tue, Oct 8 2019The new Mercedes-Benz GLS is a massive tech fortress on wheels, so the Maybach GLS is bound to be a massive tech castle. Last we heard from the gigantic Benz SUV was that it was going to be built at Mercedes’ Alabama plant. With a starting price expected to be around $200,000, itÂ’ll probably be the most expensive vehicle produced in the U.S. These spy shots give us an idea of what weÂ’re going to be looking at when the production SUV is finally revealed. Our first hint that this prototype is a Maybach is the grille. It looks suspiciously similar to the grille on the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Concept with all the vertical slats running down the big maw. Minimal camouflage is disguising the exterior for the most part, but we imagine Mercedes is hiding any of the gaudier parts of the car itÂ’d like to save for a big reveal. The exhaust outlets sure do look a bit different than the regular GLS, but the outside is generally the same as what we see today. As for the interior, thatÂ’s where most of the magic is expected to happen. A significantly overhauled look is inevitable, with the focus on even more luxurious materials than the most expensive norm-core GLS. A rear seat that's fit for a king or two is likely, along with Maybach-exclusive tech to boot. For now, we canÂ’t see in the heavily camouflaged and taped-off windows, leaving us to wonder about the luxury within. This Mercedes-Maybach is expected to compete with other massively expensive SUVs like the Bentley Bentayga or a fully decked-out Range Rover. Everything thatÂ’s optional on the GLS should come as standard here, including the trick E-Active Body Control suspension. Look for a reveal coming in the not-so-distant future, as this prototype doesnÂ’t look terribly far from production to us.

Weekly Recap: Autonomous driving goes commercial in Nevada
Sat, May 9 2015Nevada granted Daimler Trucks North America the first license to run an autonomous commercial vehicle on public roads in the United States Tuesday, marking another milestone in the technology's rapid advancement. Gov. Brian Sandoval and Daimler truck chief Wolfgang Bernhard promptly used the license to lap Highway 15 near Las Vegas in a newly revealed Freightliner Inspiration Truck. It was a clear signal that autonomous driving is big-rig reality, though it's still a long way from widespread use. Nevada certified two of Daimler's Freightliner Inspiration Trucks, which use the company's Highway Pilot system with a stereo camera, radar, and lane-keeping collision-prevention features to regulate the brakes and steering. The radar component has a long-range sensor that can cover 820 feet at an 18-degree angle and a shorter-range unit that stretches 230 feet at a 130-degree angle. The Inspiration trucks are based on the existing Freightliner Cascadia Evolution model used on US roads. In addition to the autonomous technologies, it also has futuristic design cues, including blue lighting in the front and a new hood and grille. While there are only two Freightliner Inspiration trucks in existence, Daimler expects to bring the Highway Pilot system into mass-produced big rigs by 2025, in time to capitalize on the market's predicted growth. The German truckmaker predicts the global hauling market will triple by 2050, and the United States will be a key part of that growth. Trucks carry 69.1 percent the nation's domestic freight tonnage and hauled 9.7 billion tons of freight in 2013, according to the American Trucking Association. Daimler expects autonomous driving to augment this growth, and perhaps evolve the role of the truck driver. Still, the company points out autonomous tech is not meant to replace drivers, but to assist them and relieve fatigue and monotony on long hauls. The driver has to stay in control for passing, in city traffic, and when hooking up the trailer. The company said autonomous driving also offers the potential for improved fuel economy – tests showed a five-percent gain – and lower maintenance costs. Daimler also said the technology could reduce congestion on the road. Much of this is attributable to the constant flow of traffic, which is aided by autonomous driving. While the benefits are becoming increasingly apparent, autonomous technology is still met with skepticism.
