LimoMerc

:soap: Here is my story:
I have a limousine company in Minneapolis, MN.. Not a big company, I needed to get a new car this summer after my brother moved here and I sold him my 2001 TownCar. I really wanted a MM but I was not sure that customers would like it. When I took my wife to the dealership she said she hated it but when she looked at the sticker price on the TownCar she changed her tune. After I got my limo plates, limo tint, and limo permit it was time to make the payments. The first passenger I had in the MM was an investment banker from Smith Barney and I picked him up at the airport for a 5 hour hourly. We went downtown Minneapolis and after the second stop while he was getting in the car he said "what kind of a car is this?" I took a deep breath and answered his question to which he replied "I really like it" I told him I was glad and I just bought it and I was worried about what the customers would think and he said "whats not to like?" and I said well the wheels are big and flashy and did you see the dual exhaust? and he said "look, both of those things let everyone know that we are not 80 years old which is a good thing and the rest of the car looks like it means business which I'm here to do so again those are good things"
I could go on endlessly with all of the compliments it gets. I mainly drive poeple to and from the aiport and an every now and then have bar hopping customers. My Marauder is not streched and never will be (but poeple can drink in the back seat). I am very fortunate to be able to make a living by simply driving poeple in my LimoMerc. If I could not I'm affraid I would not even own it. This site is the 2nd best thing about having an MM.
