Three transmissions? In 5 months? On a MERCEDES? What the hell? You either have a ham-fisted butt-clown for a mechanic or a top fuel dragster engine shoved between those frame rails.

I cannot even picture an element of driving abuse (except for no fluid) that would lunch three mercedes transmissions in 5 months! I've seen people put a rental car in reverse at 50 miles an hour and the transmisison lasted longer than that!

Curiosity is killing me - what happened?
