re: What happened when this woman drove a Mercedes to pick up food stamps

What does a high mileage, ten year-old Benz of that cut fetch, five thousand?

Then what will she drive? I guess she will take the bus.

Except it was not a 10 year old Benz. It was a 2003 model and her husband lost his job in 2008 maybe 2009. So it was a 5-6 year old model.

Not to mention the cost to insure, fuel and maintain a Benz despite its age is not cheap, especially not while also keeping a Honda at the same time.

Yes she absolutely could have taken the bus, but that seems below this woman.
