192" & 3500-3600 lbs of large car propelled by a 1.2L???
Did I fall asleep and wake up in Europe?????
I believe it’s actually a 1.5L, I’m sure it has the output of a bigger 4 cylinder.

It is a 1.5 L EcoBoost and it has a turbo and it faster than the older 2.3 L 4 cylinder in the 07. Of course when you drive a 4 cylinder you drive it with your foot in it all the time. It's not like a V8 or even a V6 EcoBoost.192" & 3500-3600 lbs of large car propelled by a 1.2L???

Yes you are correct. It's tough remembering these things late a night when I'm tired and a it's car that I almost never drive.I believe it’s actually a 1.5L, I’m sure it has the output of a bigger 4 cylinder.
DAMN!Dang, just called the shop who HAD told me this past Tuesday my truck would be ready when I stopped by last Wed before Kerry and I took off for Las Vegas for a few days....now they are telling me Monday...and God I hate the rental!
Here's a pic of the wheel well trim they are replacing for me........I honestly don't know if the deer hit it or not but I never noticed it prior....and I sure would have noticed a gash like this!

Can't wait to see the pictures.FINALLY! Crystal from the repair shop called and told me I'm good to go. I can't get rid of this POS rental fast enough but I sure hope they got the paint right....I'm trying to have faith...
As to the front trim damage, I addressed it honestly with the adjuster and he elected to cover it for me....honesty, it works!
Fingers crossed today.....we'll see. I hate driving the rental so bad that I almost pulled my SLK out from under it's cover in the garage yesterday before work but it was freezing out and it really does not do well on ice or any kind of frost. When I first bought it I learned about not being able to drive in snow deeper than 1.5". I literally sat in the street right in front of my home with the rear tires spinning, trying to get it back up the "hill" so I could re-garage it....in less than an inch of snow! Yeah, REALLY not good in it!! Lesson learned: Ultra-high performance street tires do not move in snow. A full set of TOL Yokohama All seasons performed barely better......now I just leave it in the garage in winter.

oh, here's that "hill"....
