I just got off the phone with my contact, whom I believe is an honest guy. He claims that the 300 is the finest car they have ever built in terms of quality. He readily admits to the problems of the past, but he claims they have come a long way the last 4 years at DC. He also said Mercedes is NOT putting out top of the line stuff, but that they used tried and true Mercedes components, such as E class rear suspension, in the 300. He's driving one himself and it just received Motor Trend's Car of the Year. My deal would be 4-5K off the sticker, which he says is 5% below cost. I assume he means dealer cost. He is hooking me up with a test vehicle from their MD HQ's for a few days... Anyhow, I hope American cars can reclaim the reliability ground and style from oversees competitors.

you watch the man show? I'm shocked!

it was probably bigger than 80x80 and got resized.

I see your avatar just fine.

who are you again?

you need to give me more info than that - c'mon. you don't have an avatar uploaded right now at all. the fix listed will correct an error to uploaded avatars that aren't showing.

absolutely!!! I'll get the best price available w/o stealing it!

my saving grace is that my former neighbor is head of the mid-Atlantic Sales division and all the dealers in the area jump to the moon when he talks.

well, are you saying styling doesn't matter at all? Surely it plays a part.... These have a lot of Benz technology in them. I'm not an MAerican car person myslef, but I applaud Chrysler for trying new designs.

that's the 300M... The 300 is new for this year.

why????

I think Paige has him beat...

is it too gangster looking??? I think I really like it....

not to bum you out, but assuming I'm right - I believe I am - then if you include OUR odds of WW then all the scenarios play out to a 10.5% chance of occuring...

I think I gave the right answer in my edited post.

I doubt that is correct either because you only need one loss out of 2 possible tries for each team. If it was the final game - yes, but not now. I think it is 0.75^3 = 42% WW, LW, WL, LL = 75% success for each team....

I don't know the right answer, but I know that you're wrong.... flipping a penny is an independent event too, but the prob. that it is flipped tails 3x in a row is not 50%.

the faulty line of reasoning usually happens within the game. 3 missed FG's and a dropped TD turns into 16 missed points. However, we know that we can only count one of those scores and the rest of the game would be different.

moving one from the loss column and putting it in the win column would obviously be a good thing in most scenarios - but the bottom line is we just don't know. Maybe a bunch of happy Bills jumps on Lee Evans and he strains his back. Nobody knows.

well, there isn't much us schmoes can do anyway, but I'll be tuned in as usual!!!

who is quitting?

thief - see my thread posted at 7:50....

well, I DO like it rough...

because you can't go back and change the outcome of an event and expect everything else to follow as if the change didn't occur. If Nate knocks that ball down and we win - our next week practice would have changed, etc... there is no telling how the season would have unfolded. A win in week one is just that - a win in week one. Maybe those loses were necessary for us to maintain this streak? Maybe we win week one, but lose today....
