Talk:Daimler Company

Smooth Move Slapping Down US Investors
My brokerage doesn't deal with "untrustworthy foreign stocks". I tried to explain to them that it is "Mercedes". They wont hear of it. Thanks for delisting yourselves, jerks. Now I cant purchase your stocks. FU.

Additions/revisions to the Daimler article
I have made a number of additions and corrections to the Daimler page. I have solely been preoccupied by the British version of Daimler.

Indeed, in North America Daimler and Daimler-Chrysler are equated by 99.9% of people as being one and the same.

I had to go through detailed and repeated explanations on how these were unrelated Marques to every single individual I dealt with at U-Haul (to rent a trailer to transport a Daimler), my insurer, both US and Canadian Customs, the DMV,... and whenever I drive around in my classic Daimler, people keep asking what it is and when I answer "Daimler", I have to go through the same explanation all over again...

Just made a minor correction to the Daimler page. It stated that the Queen Mother's funeral was with a Daimler DS420 hearse. It was a Daimler indeed, but not a DS420. I am certain about this because I am a DS420 freak (I run the Daimler DS420 site) and watched the funeral on TV (April 9, 2002) especially to see this. B.t.w.: the same was true for Princess Margaret (Feb 15, 2002).
