[quote=Anonymous]We’ve had a few Mercedes. We can afford it - I have the GLS. It’s big but I love it. Compared t our Toyota 4Runner we had for 17 years, this Mercedes is very expensive to maintain. It’s not just the premium gas, it’s the fancy features that break and the crazy costs to repair anything. My husband fixes up collector’s cars as a hobby and loves to figure out how to fix our cars. We rarely bring them anywhere for repairs. We do a service, get a list of repairs and to it ourselves. Our 17 yr old 4Runner only had brake pads, brakes and tires replaced and that’s age related. Maybe one or two other repairs that were essentially maintenance. Super easy to sell. If you can’t pay for maintenance, it’s a bad idea. Also, we buy cars that have been used for 24 months or less. It takes a big bite out of the cost since we pay cash. [/quote]
