In 1968 my wife and I went to the Mercedes dealer in San Francisco. I looked at the various models, and had the cash in my wallet to purchase it after doing my research. A salesman came up to me and spoke with a thick German accent. I asked the wrong question: “How many miles to the gallon does the model 280 get”?
The salesman stated with his nose high in the air, “Obviously, you cannot afford a Mercedes”!, as he turned his back and walked away. Mercedes lost a customer! So we went with a BMW 2002 tii. :)
