That first pic looks like a great ad for a remote car starter! As long as your heat was turned on...

The link said strong winds forced water from the lake to splash over the shoreline and freezing on everything.

Umm, no. It's a Benz C-Series that sells in the mid $30k range.

it looks like a pathfinder under all that ice. Then again it looks like some clever artwork too.

I think the SUV is a Nisan. Definetly not a 4runner.

Looked like MA

Ya, I know it was Switzerland, but I saw pics summer homes on Cape Cod that had that same ice formation after this last blizzard last weekend.

Some forecasters called it a 'winter hurricane' due to the high winds. The houses were covered just like that car.

nope, a Maybach, look at the length and the hood badge. I sold parts for these for a couple of years. I even believe that is a 62 the longer one. Its definitly not a C

Thats not a 4Runner, or anything Toyota. Looks like a Ford Escape.

No need for an e-pissing match, but I think you're wrong. Again. It's a C-class. Here is a Maybach. Completely different animal. Enjoy:



And the C-class:



Do you see any differences?
