A Mercedes would spend 112 days out of two years in the shop? I know some people with MBs, and they aren't in the shop one day per week...

- dgacmu 9y agoMost normal people dont put 300k miles on their car in two years either. That's ten 30k mile services and probably 20-30 oil changes on a gas car.
- tedunangst 9y agoYeah, though if you're running a car like that, you'd combine services and adjust the schedule a bit. Rotate the tires and change the oil. There are gas vehicles with heavy duty cycles, so it seems a bit apples to oranges to compare to the MB service book for noncommercial consumers.
- giarc 9y agoI imagine the author took all required maintenance and the time required and added it up. I imagine some maintenance can happen concurrently which was not accounted for in the article.
