Welcome to the home page of the Mercedes-Benz Discussion List. We gather in our electronic country store, sit around the stove and talk about Mercedes-Benz automobiles. We enjoy the company of folks from around the world and the level of knowledge on the list ranges from beginning DIY through MB professionals who have been repairing the cars for many years along with those who write about the cars and service or sell many products for the cars. Both the editor/publisher and the technical editor of the STAR magazine (Mercedes-Benz Club of America) are members.
This email list was founded by Richard Easley and Stu Ritter in January 1998.
The list consists of several parts. The email server is the list pivot point. Daily emails (digest form available) are the conversation format. Through this stream of emails, list members discuss Mercedes-Benz automobiles in great depth although the discussion is not restricted to the cars. List members have also gathered in many parts of the USA for "list fest" meetings where they have a chance to match faces to familiar names.
The list maintains a searchable archive which is a wealth of technical information. The archive contains nearly every post to the list from the date of inception.
A FAQ section, for Frequently-Asked Questions, is always a "work in process." Much of the material is contributed by listers. Faq articles include pictures and diagrams where applicable and available.
We are also developing resources to allow list members to upload pictures and other graphics for other listers to view.
The list is a closed list. Access to the list articles, the archive, FAQ and other resources is by subscription only. A guiding principle from the inception has been one of maintaining a "family-friendly" ambiance. General moderation policies are outlined in Mercedes Discussion List Rules To subscribe, please read the rules, then go to the subscription application at Subscribe Form.
