Yes, super weird.

 

I have no idea if my car has valet mode, but I've only ever used a valet once. Got invited to a nice dinner at a fancy Italian restaurant, hosted by the managing partners of my firm. It was valet only, and I had just returned from a camping trip a day earlier so my truck was muddy and smelled like campfire inside. I had been invited at the last minute so I didn't have time to clean it up. I definitely felt like Jed Clampett standing with my colleagues when the valet brought it back to me after dinner, especially with my modified exhaust.

 

I see a number of current Gen 7 series around Vegas. Not sure if I see more of them then W223 S-classes or not, as I do see both of them.

There's at least 3 740i's at my office building, though none belong to my coworkers.

 

haha, great story.

valet mode is useful for more than valet parking though... when having a car worked on for example, knowing when the car is worked on, limiting speed, etc.

 

Thats what I use it for

 

my LS came with a valet key that will start the car but won't allow unlocking of the glovebox

there's also a 3rd key that will only unlock the glovebox and doors but not start the car


(not mine but you get the idea)

 

My CEL was a faulty purging pressure sensor, there are 2 of them they are part of the EVAP system. They're replacing both, should be done today.

 

On the Plus side, we get car reviews on your loaners. Haha 😃

 

Used to valet cars back when cars didn’t have a valet mode. What a fun time!!

 

Yeah I don't mind trying out a loaner lol. I was hoping they would have a new E Class. They have a couple in their fleet but they were all out with customers. I've had the previous gen E Class, C Classes, GLCs, a GLE, a GLS...and then of course the A Class, GLA and GLB which I refuse.

 

I wish I could talk you into taking an A Class for an honest review

I'm ready for a good car rant! 🍟 🍿 🍕 🌭

 

I've had them, thats why I refuse them lol. I got an A Class back when I had my S560 in for the valve cover gasket repair and it was so awful I took it back later that day and swapped it for another one, thats when I got the GLS. No way I was driving that A Class for a week+. No power seats, by the way.

The A Class and GLA and GLB are all basically the same, same layout inside. They're cheap, loud, uncomfortable...terrible cars.

 

But my god do the owners act like they have something special lol!

 

Oh they do lol.

It’s funny cars like this C Class never appealed to me. But I really like this thing, I’ve been zooming around all day lol. Must be a mid life crisis.

Hate the side front plate.




And real door handles!

 

Side front plate always look bad.
