From the Department of Redundancy Department

Sharp-eyed Steevil checks in with a two-fer today, this time pointing us to the latest write-up on MSN Autos of the Mercedes-Benz M-Klasse, where freelance auto writer Ann Job informs us:

[...] Traction and Safety Items
The new M-Class is lighter than its earlier-generation model. The primary reason is the new unibody construction, which is less heavy than the predecessor's body-on-frame. [...]

::smacks forehead:: OF COURSE!

It should be noted that the new Merc is also 1 inch lower than the outgoing model, which was accomplished through the addition of less tallness, and faster than the previous model by being less slow.

Thank you, Steevil!

The local paper has Ms. Job's column. It is always less than informative. A Pat Bedard she is not not to mention your herorine Denise.

I think I must just be jealous that she gets to be a freelance automotive writer, and I don't. I mean, I could be just as uninformative.

Ahh, Ms. McCluggage...
