I drive a Mercedes W447 in the US (though the "crew" version) and get no end of crap from people around me with F150's and the like (I live in an area that is borderline rural/urban and has a ton of farming). Meanwhile I have a larger hauling capacity, get vastly better mileage, have 8 seats when I want them, etc.

It's too bad no-one bought these and they went away.

Amusingly the Postal Service in our area drives them now.

> Mercedes W447

Something like this or an electric van would be amazing. However, does everyone always want to borrow it? I don’t think I own anything that wouldn’t fit in a vehicle like that.

Yes, I get all kinds of requests to borrow it to move stuff.
