Were you the guy who had an E320 and ran it into a guard rail, and then posted a question in the forum here a couple of months ago asking us for our advice on replacing it? I think I remember talking with you about the safety of the E320 vs. the ES. So....I guess you chose the ES ?

Yup. A number of reasons. Namely the fact that I had put a lot of money into parts that i would not be able to take from the salvaged car and put into a new E320. For instance, I had converted the AC over to R134, I replaced a faulty radiator with a brand new behr that cost over 300 dollars, i replaced the alternator with an OEM, and I was not about to go and do that again. So, looking at the reliability ratings of the ES in comparison with the E320, i went with the ES, also because my parents thought that FWD in wisconsin made more sense. Thus far, i'm a very pleased customer and definately would recommend it. Though not as fun to drive, and there isnt the aura of the 3-pointed star on the hood , its quiet, smooth, and i feel pretty safe in it. Its also much better on gas.

Well, I am hoping that the Braves can win yet another division title and not choke AGAIN, and go on and win the penant!.. So many division titles, so little World Series flags?
