But even more harmful to the brand image is that Mercedes has diluted its unique claim as a builder of high-end luxury cars by going after nearly every product segment in the U.S. market.
It started over 10 years ago, so get over it.

For 2008, Mercedes is more of a full-line brand than Ford.
Really? Where is Mercedes' small pickup truck, large pickup truck, full-size van, heavy-duty pickup, and entry-level hatchback in their U.S. lineup?

Yes a real dumb arse. This guy is a textbook example of why automotive "writers" shouldn't do "write" anything. Clearly he is clueless about anything car releated. Any dummy can post what he did. All he did was look at the equipment list and re-hash MB's (passing) reliability woes. Great, substantial review!
