I'm sure there are some people for whom driving is "an experience" and worth spending lots of money on.
For most of us, it's just how we get places, and there's not a big enough difference between how comfortable I am with a carful of screaming kids in traffic in a Toyota vs. a carful of screaming kids in traffic in a Mercedes.
Driving isn't an "experience" for Gen Z. Being a passenger certainly isn't. They barely look up between getting in the car and back out. They're not even going to notice the features of a Mercedes.
- SergeAx 4y agoWell, one of the feature of the Mercedes is a very smooth suspension. It is much more convenient to type on the mobile keyboard while onboard of such a car. I think Gen X really should notice that.
- smeej 4y agoThey don't need smoothness to type. Those kids can type on rollercoasters and not even notice the ride.
- nickd2001 4y agoA friend had a 20-yr-old Merc, it was about 1990 model so he had it in 2010. When he gave me a lift in it , it did indeed have a nice smooth ride. Being 20 yrs old, it had the added benefit of not costing a s** ton of money and therefore he didn't have to work for a soul-sucking sweatshop to afford it. ;) It was also still reliable, unlike modern Mercs (if anecdotes are to be believed)
