June 25, 2009 will “go down in history” as the day an American icon breathed her last. As I watch the media regurgitate over and over again the news of Michael Jackson’s untimely, unfortunate and unnecessary death, with an occasional flash of Farah Fawcett’s suffering and death, it takes me back many years to a specialized forensic school where Every day we were challenged to “profile” someone in the news. I can’t help but profile Michael and the personality that resulted in his death. At the same time I am quite sad; not just out of sympathy for the millions of mourners, but out of depth of real truth and the knowledge that, on a far less famous scale, millions will bury family and friends for the same reason. I feel a responsibility to share the truth, to give the uninformed a “warning,” a “profile” of what killed Michael Jackson. Farah’s death is an entirely different story for an entirely different but no less important article, but Michael’s death may serve to save the lives of the millions on their way to join him in death. because his personality is the personality of many millions. Michael won’t be giving live concerts, but in death he may still be an icon…

What really killed Michael Jackson?

The toxicology report isn’t in yet because Michael’s autopsy is being scheduled now, but that doesn’t matter. What matters is the knowledge that a human heart is designed to function well beyond 50 years unless prevented in some way. We know that Michael would have had the best of the best in modern healthcare and heart disease would have been known and cared for. I suspect he has a long-term habit of over-medication, and profiling his reclusive personality corroborates that possibility in my mind. If this is found to be the case, which I suspect it will be, some “in the know” would say certain suicide, and while correct, many would not understand. Some would say that Michael’s blood is in the hands of many personal and paid enablers, and they would be right too. Others would say it was modern medicine and pharmaceuticals, and still others would say it was society’s fault. Everything would be correct. In the hope of keeping the message of Michael’s death from fading away, providing an opportunity that I think he would take if he could, to save millions of lives, those of his friends, family and maybe even his own, let me explain.

It all started many years ago, in fact about the beginning of time. Man has eternally searched for ways to escape from his own mind, ways to depress anxiety and ways to lift from the depths of depression. Ways to strike a balance between the extremism of the two. Throughout history, man has searched and experimented with alcohol and virtually all forms of substances in search of that miracle cure-all to help him avoid the stresses of life; a way to “feel good”. We have witnessed an era where thousands of people decided to “escape reality” by sucking marijuana as a full-time occupation. We are now in an era where many turn to illicit drugs to get through the day. On the other side of this eternal search, we have witnessed the development of multiple models of mental health counseling from Freud to fraud, which may be the same thing, and over these many years and developments, we have not been able to find that panacea.

The medical revolution of the 20th century ushered in new hope and what many believed to be the “solution.” When Valium came along, it seemed like the answer to our eternal quest, but the mind has a unique way of coming up with new symptoms in any attempt to avoid self-responsibility. From valium we have gone on to develop countless chemicals to sedate the mind, to block out the reality of our daily demons, to escape from ourselves, our daily stressors or our unhappy lives. I would like to say that believers in the Word are immune to this eternal search and intense need for a way to blunt reality, but unfortunately they are under even greater stress for various reasons that are beyond the scope of this article to discuss. Suffice it to say that the Church is failing in its responsibility to teach the whole Word, and the congregation is not following the same instructions intended to keep them mentally sound. Both believers and non-believers suffer from the stress of being human.

I imagine we will find that Michael Jackson’s untimely death was ultimately fueled by this eternal search for a way to deal with chronic stress, by not being able to take control of his own mind and allow logic to reign over emotion. You see that it is illogical (an emotional act) to abuse medication when the warnings are clear. Michael witnessed the death of Anna Nicole Smith from an overdose, was married to Elvis’s daughter, had knowledge and warning, and ignored the warning. Maybe it was a death wish, maybe just an addiction which is my suspicion, but we’ll never really know the answer to that. He differs from Elvis, the king of rock, only in the fact that he lived 8 years longer. While life for the average human being is stressful, being the “King” understandably adds some degrees of stress. Michael woke up every morning and went to sleep every night as a victim of his fame, and at a great mental cost that led to his physical death. We have witnessed in the last few years of him, through the child abuse trials and financial failure, the disappearance of Michael Jackson. We witnessed a complete transformation from “I’ll be there” innocence to a figure we came to know as “Whacko Jacko.” His personal transformation from King of Pop to Whacko was no doubt the result of his emotional distress, perhaps his inability to find himself as an adult, but his death can be directly attributed to his inability to control that stress, and to those that enabled it.

So who really killed Michael Jackson?

Returning for a moment to the first paragraph of this article, we discussed that man has been searching for a magic pill to control stress since time immemorial. Although we have yet to find it, human greed combined with a true desire to advance medicine has provided a deadly cocktail for those who choose to use and abuse it, but the stress still lingers waiting for us to take responsibility, to face our demons. . First, I would put the blood of Michaels’s death on the “powers that be,” on the government and states that allow drug companies to advertise to an unwitting public that the latest dangerous chemical is the answer to all problems, and lavish rewards on doctors for prescribing them. This greed for the almighty dollar with carefully orchestrated advertising has turned the American people into a nation of Sheople, seeking medicine to solve all their problems, regardless of personal responsibility.

He would then have to spill Michael’s blood on those who enabled him, they too acted out of greed. Well-paid medical “professionals” knew the dangers, knew what was right and what was wrong, but they didn’t just say no. Lastly, I would have to say that none of this would have mattered and that Michael would probably be alive today if he had taken the responsibility of handling his stress without chemicals.

Michael paid the ultimate price because the government chooses to ignore the millions who die from dangerous drugs in favor of seeking out those that offer natural solutions. He paid the ultimate price due to the greed of the pharmaceutical companies working to convince that dangerous drugs are the first choice for all human ills, and due to the irresponsibility and greed of the very enablers who undoubtedly paid dearly. good to help him commit suicide. . Michael’s death was by his own hand, facilitated by a very broken society.. Michael has been exonerated, he has paid the ultimate price for his irresponsibility. If we’re going to blame the enablers for him, let’s do it fairly and bring charges against all of the above.

And the Sheople will continue to perish

I offer these thoughts for the many millions who feel they cannot get through the day without drugs to mitigate reality, and especially for the few who might read and choose not to perish due to their own irresponsibility. As long as we remain a nation of followers, believing in science to rid ourselves of self-responsibility, we will continue to perish unnecessarily. The medication promised to set us free, only dilates brains, suppresses logic, and turns masses into a writhing, writhing mass of emotions, a volatile recipe for disaster. Half of our cars are driven by medicated drivers and we have road rage, we have adults walking into schools killing innocents. Half of our families are on medication and we have massive family dysfunction, making dysfunctional children a dysfunctional drug world. For believers, we see in Genesis what happens when we subrogate logic to emotion; It certainly was not an act of logic that started the downward spiral in which we find humanity today, and it is failure to walk in logic that continues to destroy millions. It is not logical to strap a bomb to a child and send him out into a mob to die, it is not logical to believe that this is what God wants for the children he created. Remember Michael, and remember the dangers that lurk beneath high-priced pharmaceutical advertisements, these chemicals do little more than destroy logic. If you’re one of the millions crying one minute and a raving lunatic the next, change your diet, stop using sugar-free chemicals and processed junk, and eat natural, healthy foods. Your hormones will balance as will your temperament. Help your loved ones find help to deal with stress and get rid of daily medications. Stop giving your children a medicated example and teach them logic and self-responsibility, because you are putting them on the path for the rest of their lives. Find safe, natural ways to deal with your stress before it gets the upper hand. Remember that stress is a “state of mind” and you can change that state, or you can allow it to consume you, that is a choice. Remember that your past does not dictate your future, the way you handled the stress of life yesterday does not dictate how you will deal with it tomorrow. Keep in mind that while chemicals can be helpful on occasion, long term use is what happened to Michael and don’t let that happen to you. If you suffer from chronic pain and you weren’t “hit by a truck”, it’s probably just stress and it’s probably in your best interest to stay away from the doctor who only has medicine to offer. Let logic reign, if you can’t avoid the influence of clever TV commercials that promise to eliminate all your problems, leave the fool out the back door and pick up a good book on nutrition, better yet pick up a Bible and look up instructions. ..

Remember Michael, he passed on from us leaving only his music, or in his death he can remain an icon for freeing millions of people from drug commercials and resulting drug dependency. Which one will he be to you?

Buying a truck can be a good option, especially for new car seekers who need a vehicle that can carry heavy cargo and tow heavy loads, such as a boat. In addition to this, new car seekers could also easily get hold of some of the available car loans to purchase this. However, this type of vehicle also has its drawbacks.

If you are open to the idea of ​​buying a truck, then you need to weigh the pros and cons out there. By doing this, you could easily find a way to maximize the benefits of a truck and figure out how to deal with its drawbacks.

Try reading some of the car tips offered online or talk to a car expert. In addition to this, you can also do the proper car research to get the necessary information. However, this article provides some of the common advantages and disadvantages of a truck and this includes the following.

Advantages

1. Trucks are offered in various sizes.

Just like any other type of vehicle, trucks are offered in various sizes. Because of this, you have more options to choose from. If you need a big truck, you can go for a full-size version. This version is considered the largest, while the smaller version is known as the compact version. Since the trucks are offered in different sizes, you can easily select the best one for you.

2. Trucks are powerful

Another important benefit that you can get from a truck is its impressive power output. Trucks are often equipped with larger engines that allow them to carry heavier loads. Other vehicles could also carry loads, but not as heavy as trucks. In addition to this, the design of the truck could allow you to load bulky and oversized cargo that you cannot easily do in other types of vehicles.

A truck’s powerful engine also allows the vehicle to pull heavy loads and trailers like a boat. However, the towing capacity of a vehicle depends on its size. A smaller or more compact version has a towing capacity of around 3,000 to 7,000 pounds. A full-size truck, on the other hand, is capable of towing up to 12,000 pounds. Because of this, you can easily select a vehicle with a towing capacity that suits your needs.

4. Trucks are stronger vehicles

Since trucks are powerful vehicles and were designed to do heavy work, they are built with stronger components. Due to this, they can be driven even in difficult road conditions and still provide the necessary performance.

Disadvantage

1. Trucks are not fuel efficient

The most significant disadvantage of trucks is their fuel economy. They consume more fuel as their engines are larger and the nature of the job it was designed for is relatively heavy.

However, there are trucks that are equipped with more fuel efficient 4-cylinder engines and this could be a good option if you are looking for a truck with good fuel economy. The only problem with a 4-cylinder truck is that it is not capable of providing the performance that the version with larger engines could.

2. Trucks have limited space for passengers

Another downside of a truck is the number of passengers it can accommodate. Although the largest trucks can accommodate up to 5 passengers, the legroom and shoulder room are not enough to provide comfort for the car’s occupants.

There are many types of boats for many types of people. If you prefer to be in contact with nature, a sailboat may be right for you. If you like to kick back and cast a line, a fishing boat may be your fantasy. But if you like thrills, chills, and euphoria, a speedboat may be your calling. A commercial speedboat can be quite expensive, but if you can get your hands on the right materials, building your own speedboat can cost much less and be very rewarding. Even more rewarding is creating your own speedboat design.

Most people never consider building their own boat, but it really makes a lot more sense than buying one. You’ll save a ton of money by doing the work yourself. Then you can show off to all your friends how you built this awesome boat that completely blows your store-bought boat out of the water. Not to mention, you’ll learn a lot of boat building knowledge that you can apply to projects in the future.

The first thing to consider when building your speedboat is to have a plan to follow. You can’t just start building; you have to have a plan of attack on how you go about the project. When I built my first boat I didn’t know what to do. Fortunately, I found this amazing 3D CAD software that helped me design an amazing ship just the way I wanted it. It took me a few tries to figure it out, but once I understood the possibilities this program possessed, I was blown away. He could build any kind of ship he wanted! So I spent some time and developed the perfect model for my dream boat. Once I had my blueprint, it was time to get my hands dirty.

Speedboats will require length to allow you to travel at fast speeds. With that in mind, you want to make sure you have a nice, open workspace for a long time. I’ve always used my garage, but for those larger boats, you may have to park your cars in the driveway for a few months to make room.

Once you’ve laid out your work area and purchased your materials, you can start putting everything together. Just follow your blueprint and double check each measurement before you do the finishing touch. If you have a 9 to 5 job like me, finding time to care for your baby can be difficult. I tend to use the weekend for my boat building time. You’d be surprised what you can accomplish in the span of 2 days.

When it’s finally done, I’m sure you won’t be able to stop smiling. You will never forget the first time you threw it into the water. Having your own speedboat is an amazing feeling. This is not your average boat, it’s about speed and lots of it! Best of all, you did it yourself.

Many of us know that solar power is a good thing, but few really understand why. So, I’ve compiled a comprehensive list of the pros and cons of solar power that will allow you to make an informed decision about whether solar power is right for YOU.

Advantages of solar energy

1. Save money

  • Once the initial investment is recovered, the energy of the sun is practically FREE.
  • The payback/payback period for this investment can be very short depending on the amount of electricity your home uses.
  • There are financial incentives available from the government that will lower your cost.
  • If your system produces more energy than it uses, your utility company can buy it from you and put a credit on your account. This is called net metering.
  • It will save you money on your electric bill if you have one.
  • Solar energy does not require any fuel.
  • It is not affected by the supply and demand of fuel and therefore is not subject to the ever-increasing price of gasoline.
  • The savings are immediate and for many years to come.
  • The use of solar energy indirectly reduces health costs.

2. Environmentally friendly

  • Solar energy is clean, renewable (unlike gas, oil and coal) and sustainable, which helps protect our environment.
  • It does not pollute our air by releasing carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, or mercury into the atmosphere like many traditional forms of electricity generation do.
  • Therefore, Solar Energy does not contribute to global warming, acid rain or smog.
  • It actively contributes to the reduction of harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
  • It is generated where it is needed.
  • By not using any fuel, Solar Energy does not contribute to the costs and problems of recovering and transporting fuel or storing radioactive waste.

3. Independent/semi-independent

  • Solar energy can be used to offset the consumption of energy supplied by public services. Not only does it reduce your electricity bill, but it will also continue to supply electricity to your home/business in the event of a power outage.
  • A solar energy system can work completely independently, without the need for a connection to an electricity or gas network. Therefore, the systems can be installed in remote locations (such as vacation log cabins), making it more practical and cost-effective than supplying utility electricity to a new site.
  • The use of Solar Energy reduces our dependence on foreign and/or centralized energy sources, influenced by natural disasters or international events and thus contributes to a sustainable future.
  • Solar energy supports local wealth and job creation, boosting local economies.

4.Low/no maintenance

  • Solar power systems are virtually maintenance free and will last for decades.
  • Once installed, there are no recurring costs.
  • They run quietly, have no moving parts, do not release unpleasant odors, and do not require you to add fuel.
  • More solar panels can be easily added in the future as your family’s needs grow.

Disadvantages of solar energy

  • The initial cost is the main disadvantage of installing a solar energy system, largely due to the high cost of the semi-conductive materials used in the construction.
  • The cost of solar power is also high compared to non-renewable electricity supplied by utilities. As power shortages become more common, solar energy becomes more competitive in price.
  • Solar panels require a fairly large area for installation to achieve a good level of efficiency.
  • The efficiency of the system also depends on the location of the sun, although this problem can be overcome with the installation of certain components.
  • Solar energy production is influenced by the presence of clouds or pollution in the air.
  • Similarly, no solar power will be produced at night, although a battery backup system and/or net metering will solve this problem. See http://www.dsireusa.org for details on how net metering saves you electricity and money.
  • As far as solar-powered cars go, their slower speed might not appeal to everyone caught up in today’s rat race.

Moving house is always hard work. It takes a lot of preparation and advance planning. Therefore, to help with all of this, it is always best to hire moving companies to do the packing and moving for you. When you hire them, they will schedule a date and begin carefully wrapping all your furniture, appliances, and other belongings and then packing them into the moving truck and taking them to the new destination.

But before you get to the booking part, you need to choose the right moving company. Start by narrowing down the available options and then choose the one that meets your requirements and provides all the necessary services.

Below is a list of services that all good moving companies will provide.

Stick to your schedule

The most important thing is to decide the day of the move. A good and capable moving company will ask you the days you are likely to move. They will ask you the dates the property is sold/purchased and when all paperwork is finalized. This information is necessary to start organizing everything and make sure the move can go ahead as planned.

Ask about parking at both houses.

Asking about parking in advance will help the business organize its resources properly. If there isn’t much space to park a large truck, they can arrange for a smaller van to act as a liaison between the house and the main truck, or if the truck is parked a bit further away, more labor will be required on the day of the event. moving. . It is also helpful for you as you can avoid additional charges on moving day.

Provide packing material and packing service.

If you decide to do your own packing, the mover will need to ship the packing materials on time to meet your schedule. And if you accept their offer to pack for you, they’ll do all the wrapping and packing safely. Whichever service you take, a good moving company will discuss all the details and clearly decide the dates.

Have a detailed conversation to know your situation

The more details you provide to the removal company, the better they will tailor all services based on your situation and requirements. Let’s say if you are going to sell some possessions or buy some furniture just before the move, then the mover will have to consider them and calculate the labor requirement and cost to be charged accordingly. And all this information can only be transmitted when both parties have a proper conversation.

Conduct a pre-move survey

The best thing an experienced mover can do is conduct a pre-move survey. In this survey, a moving consultant will visit your current home and go through all the possessions you have, going through all the rooms, closets, lofts, backyard, etc., to get an idea of ​​how much stuff needs to be packed and moved. . The consultant will advise you on what services you can use and what the appropriate cost will be. This survey is free of cost.

Are you tired of depending on mom and dad to pay your monthly allowance? Do you need to make some quick money? Why not do something about it? It is not necessary to have a driver’s license to earn money. In fact, there are many ways to earn quick money without having to rely on your weekly tasks.

1. Wash cars: Just because you can’t drive them doesn’t mean you can’t wash them. Start a neighborhood car wash service. To make even more money, opt to also include an interior vacuuming and window washing service in your business.

Because laundry is an annoying chore that most busy working adults are more than willing to pay you to do. So take advantage of this and start scrubbing.

2. Deliver weekly: Check the yellow pages or your local community ads for businesses that may need a delivery person. Deliveries are easy to make and allow you to enjoy the sun. Ride a bike, rollerblade or just walk around the neighborhood for cash.

3. Offer a dog-walking service: Many people are simply too tired after a long day at work to walk their pups. Offer to brush hairballs off your neighbors’ hands for an hour and start a dog-walking business.

Pick up as many dogs as you can, collect a fee, and head to the park or around the block after school. Dogs and their owners will thank you! And your wallet too!

If you want to transport your bike and your car or vehicle does not have a tow bar, the ideal solution is to install a bike rack in the trunk of your car. It is considered the most versatile and cost-effective bike rack. These are built in such a way that they fit all vehicles with a very easy installation process.

There are four main parameters on which compatible trunk mount bike racks should be selected: user compatibility, bike compatibility, vehicle compatibility, and vehicle accessibility. If the vehicle has a spoiler, the racks may not be compatible with your vehicle. Choose the strongest, safest and easiest to use bike rack.

The main benefit is that the overhead charges will be very low and affordable. It requires no luggage rack or hitch and is considered the ideal choice for occasional short trips. Most of these bike racks are easy to use and can easily carry 2-4 bikes. They are easily affordable and stored. The trunk mount bike rack combines security and provides increased clearance over other spoilers. It is more convenient for the purpose of use and storage.

Molded rubber pads are provided to provide firm support and hold the vehicle together with proper scratch protection. Since it can hold more than one bike, it is very important to manage the bike-to-bike contact along with the car-to-bike contact. Anti-sway cages play an important role in managing such contacts and the arms of the bike provide ample clearance to prevent contact damage. It cushions the bike together with maximum safety.

The levers on the trunk mount bike rack allow you to easily and independently adjust the arms of the bike. This feature is designed to support all types of bike frames.

This type of rack is also available with another important feature called belt management. The strap management device consists of additional straps that protect the vehicle. These straps are made of suitable nylon material to hold the rack ensuring the most comfortable and secure installation. They also have secure lockable bike racks along with padlocks.

Trunk mount bike racks also feature narrow cradle arms to hold children’s bikes and can be folded away when not in use. The arms are designed to provide flexibility, they can be folded or adjusted according to requirements.

You can also buy over the Internet without physically visiting the store. All features and specifications are provided in detail against each product. Therefore, choose the most suitable bike rack, make the payment and receive it at the door of your house. Many online stores offer a wide variety of racks for cars, trucks, vans, garages, home use, etc.

The foam is all around us. There are countless products made from foam, specifically polystyrene (also known as EPS or expanded polystyrene), from the crown molding in your home to that exhibit you just saw at the museum or that cool sign at the store you just bought from. .

But why would a manufacturer choose to use foam when they clearly have other material options, such as metals, aluminum, plastics, PVC, acrylics, or wood?

Dimensional letters can be used as directional and architectural signage, affixed to a building, office entrances, or on walls to mark a message. Fabrication and sign shops have been using various materials to create dimensional letters, logos, and signs for retail stores, businesses, stages, weddings, trade shows, conventions, and for any event. But imagine making metal letters to go on stage.

Metals and wood are considerably heavy and inconvenient to transport and handle when moving from one place to another. Wood can produce a great finished look, but it is also heavy and time consuming to work with. And plastics and PVCs are not an easy material to mold and machine. Therefore, more and more manufacturers are using foam, which is a lightweight substance, as a source to create large letters.

There are many ways to create the dimensional letters. They can be left as white raw material if required. They can be coated in a matt, semi-gloss or gloss finish. Letters can be painted with special paints to look like wood, or with faux bronze paint to add a metal look. They can be laminated, vinyl covered, fabric covered or even backlit for a light effect.

Acrylic can be laminated to the front of the letters to match a specific logo color or to make a sign look colorful. It seems that acrylic cut letters have become one of the most popular choices for indoor sign letters.

Acrylic is cut with a laser cutter and it produces a fairly precise cut. Still, foam is the most cost-effective solution for creating signs, logos, lettering, and accessories.

Since the raw foam material itself is brittle and can be damaged by water, humidity, and sun exposure, the coating can protect it. Different types of coating can be used depending on the application and the use that is needed.

They can be topcoated with a light coat such as epoxy, a sprayable, buffable or brushable midcoat such as Styrospray1000, or a jet sprayed polyurea hardcoat. The coating not only protects the letters, logo or sign, but also gives them a much longer durability – they can last up to a lifetime once coated.

An EPS foam block is typically 4 by 4 by 8 feet. Therefore, the most convenient size to create the project is up to 4 feet. However, there is no size limit when creating and manufacturing letters. If they need to be larger, they can be sectioned off and glued together, and by sanding down the glued pieces, the seam is almost completely removed.

The letters are cut using a CNC hot wire foam cutter. The foam is used to add dimension to the letters.

Foam letters are a great option, for example, if you want depth in a lobby wall sign.

They are actually 2D which may look like a 3D project.

By giving it enough thickness, they can be “stand-alone” letters on a stage. For example, a 4 foot letter must be made a minimum of 8 inches thick to be able to stand on its own.

Foam can be cut pretty quickly. A few passes of the hot wire melting into the material can create a letter in no time. Another advantage of foam substrate is that it is easy to cut, shape, mold, carve and sand for a smoother finish.

Round letters can be made flat on the bottom so they stand on their own.

The manufacturer can create a base for the letters, either from the same foam material or from acrylic, which is transparent, so it serves as a great invisible support.

Weights can also be placed inside the foam itself to support the weight of the card and prevent it from tipping over.

If it is necessary to hang the letters, a double-sided tape can be attached to hang them on a wall, for example. In case they are large and heavy, metal rods and suspensions can be placed on them or they can be attached to hooks or hung from the ceiling.

Dimensional letters will help a business attract customers and be more attractive.

Yes, there are certainly many options and sometimes it can be confusing trying to figure them out. I’d say if you’re on a budget but still want a quality sign, foam letters and logos are one of your best options.

Dimensional foam lettering, logos and signs are a great way to enhance the character and depth of your message or logo and build brand recognition.

90 years ago, Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler founded the “Mercedes-Benz” brand in Stuttgart, Germany. After World War I, the economy was so affected that the idea of ​​merging and building a society was considered something that overcomes the obstacles of the weather. DMG and Benz & Cie., the world’s two largest car manufacturers at the time, successfully merged in May 1924, and in 1926 “Mercedes-Benz” was born.

The three-star Mercedes logo represents the company’s dominance over land, sea and air. According to the company, it represents the automaker’s drive towards universal motoring with its engines dominating land, sea and air. The emblem is a symbol of world domination.

Cars that made history

The engines of Mercedes cars are of supreme quality. These premium engines evolved with the evolution of different cars in each era since their first production. The Model K was the first car produced, after the two companies merged.

It was incredibly successful and the production of Mercedes-Benz cars increased to 7,000 in 1927. Then came the S-series with a variety of cars until 1929. In the 30’s the biggest and most prestigious car ‘Mercedes-Benz W15’ made its debut, which helped them become one of the leading brands in the automotive industry.

The 260 D model was the world’s first diesel passenger car. In the 1940s, the company stopped vehicle production due to World War II, then resumed operations in 1946 with the 170 V.
