That is amazing lol

I'm on a couple Dad FB groups and one guy posted a picture of the first cut of his new lawn, and he was using an EGO electric mower and this guy laid into him about the electric mower making him a pansy, and I loved the response "How insecure in your own masculinity do you have to be to be threatened by an electric lawnmower?" LOL

We were talking about crazy deals on the EQS and some were doubting the deals I was sharing, check this one out. Dealer demo with 4k miles, effective payment is $196.21/mo. $4,710 total to drive it for 2 years!

It's so much better than the 450 4matic, 536 hp, the torque, the hyperscreen, just overall upgrade. And I get 3 payments back from MBFS for the pull-ahead program because my current EQS was a 1-pay. So I get back like $2250.

Let's be direct about the car itself: the technology is brilliant.

The design, however, is polarizing. It does not have the timeless, stately appeal of an S-Class. And yet, its controversial shape gets a surprising amount of attention on the road, and I've grown to appreciate its design.

But the debate over styling becomes almost irrelevant at this price point. It’s hard to imagine anyone experiencing this level of technology and comfort, for the price I paid, and not "giving it a whirl."

In the end, a deal like this is only possible when you understand the market's specific weaknesses. The polarizing design, a high starting price, fierce competition, and depreciation falling faster than a two-ton boulder—these factors created the perfect financial opening. That market reality, combined with my negotiating skills, is what made something this spectacular possible. For that, I have zero complaints.

Does your S Class do the weird stuttered swipe of the washer fluid? You know what I'm talking about, right?
