This is about as basic a newbie question as there can be!</P>


What do owners of this brand (notice how I'm avoiding using any term here!) refer to the brand as?</P>


Do you say "Mercedes", "Mercedes-Benz", "Benz", "EM-BE", "MERK", or something else? </P>

 

Mercedes</P>

 

Mercedes. Benz is the company that built the gas chambers. Just plain old Mercedes.

 

In Germany people who are proud about their car say 'my Mercedes'. In amore disrespectfulmeaning they say 'he is driving an old Benz'. </P>


Other opinions about this ?</P>
