Is it worth it though?

[QUOTE="FrigidFTSup, post: 2254086, member: 58894"] You're assuming the technology is transferable, which it isn't. On top of it, Mercedes development cost is spread out over thousands of vehicles, which they are also in turn selling. For something like this we would probably take it all in house, the costs aren't transferred. We have how many different PC sizes? And then you have feeders. You'd need to configure it for Singles, Doubles, Triples, and 53 footers. Then have a mechanism in place to ensure the proper set is selected. It's not as easy as saying "Hey Mercedes, we'll give you $100 million to outfit our fleet" There is a reason this feature is in luxury cars, and not entry models. [/QUOTE]
