Jalop1991 Ah gots me mah four wheel drive, I ain't need no sissy "winter" tahrs that are all just marketing gobbledygook anyways. Tahrs is tahrs, y'all need four wheel drive in the snow.
ChristianWimmer Honestly, the W220 S-Classes aren’t as bad as people make them out to be. The early models had some issues which were thankfully mostly taken care off with the facelift, though strangely rust remained an issue. The important part is that these days the faults are known and there’s a thriving online community [for any car] that gives useful DIY tips on preventative maintenance and where to get genuine OEM or solid [reliable] aftermarket spares. When I worked for a Benz dealer in the early 2000s I got to drive plenty of these (mostly S320, S320 CDI and S500 models and once an S400 CDI V8 Turbodiesel) and I found them relaxing, comfortable and great Autobahn cruisers. Best of all the W220s actually handled compared to the floaty and boat-like W140 predecessors.
MaintenanceCosts I love EVs but long road trips are the worst scenario for them. If my road trip doesn't have any off-highway driving, the ideal vehicle for it is a Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Pinnacle. If it does, then the best choice is a 2021 or earlier Toyota Land Cruiser.
