One thing that stands out to me:

The Dodge Daytona Scat Pack EV curb weight is over 5900lbs‼️
LOL. The Yukon is only like 85lbs heavier.

are you less negative on the eqe then? and i did think it was an eqe but didn't write that because i thought surely they wouldn't put a plebeian eqe image in an s-class.

‘The EQE front end is awful. It is worse in person as well.. I think the EQE and EQS are good looking from the rear and rear 3/4 angle. The EQS suv is not bad looking

The EQS and EQE are insane deals though, you can get a 2 year old sub 30k mile EQS for like $25-35k lol!

At that point just lease a loaner, the programs while not as good as before, still gets you a new fart car to ride around with any tech updates.

And remember, if your eqs doesnt have those pillows in the back, are you really driving a luxury car lol
