I have been there a few times. You can do this with any car(in the past) but if you want to engine brake down a large grade it better be fuel injected. Engine braking with a carburetor is gonna blow your exhaust up as soon as you turn the ignition on. Also engine braking will retain your power brakes whether they are vacuum or hydraulic.

Most new cars are so faggoty you can't even do any of this.

I've rolled into gas stations before after running out of gas. Pretty awesome feeling of relief. This was all moreso when I was younger and broke, only buying gas as needed.

300D's are awesome. Million miles cars. Gutless but cool and comfy as fuck.

Edit: I just wish they had an extra gear so you could go over 55MPH.

My bro, you know, I want another one. The speed cap sucked, but the low gears were amazing. Had bald tires so I was throwing donuts in that bitch and a bit of off-roading. I abused that car like crazy, but she was always there in the morning to fry up some eggs. The mechanics were so simple and no computer, so I was able to make many repairs myself, even as a dumb kid.

Had a friend bang some jock's chick and his friends descended on us in their broncos, f-150s yada yada. That old 300 Mercedes punched right through em with only minor damage, and then it out ran them through the woods. Beast of a car.

My old boss loaned me one when I was between cars. I took it up a 4x4 worthy road to a renegade rave in the mountains that his son was putting on. Yeah he found out. Yeah I was a little punk. But, I didn't abuse it or so much as scratch it getting there and back.

They have good ground clearance and awesome suspension. It's a miracle of engineering considering how heavy they are. The underbelly took a thrashing but never gave me grief.
