Vehicle maintenance costs are approx. half the cost & life span Of the "Benz"is twice as long as ANY other vehicle this class. Thanks-Motor Week.

They might have a deal with Mercedes. A few decades ago I worked for a large computer company. We installed a large main-frame computer system and 100s of computer terminals in a car manufacturers factory and dealers. A couple of weeks later all our 3-year old company cars were replaced with new ones.

Mercedes sells a good van they call the Sprinter. Look it up.

Yes I'm aware the sprinter Mercedes is the exact van I'm referring to that FedEx I saw using

That's a Diamler brand. It's probably made in the US.

Fleet economics is different than family car economics.

When you are putting in an order for 1,000,000 vehicles with a maintenance schedule, Mercedes might be willing to give you a really good deal.
