A week ago our Mercedes 560 SEL was picked up for donation to MPR. We watched with sadness and gratefulness as the car being trucked away under the fall evening sky. This car has been in our family for more than 27 years. Both our kids grew up with it since the days they were born. It has been a wonderful, safe and reliable car that has harbored us through everyday life and long road trips, rain or shine, summer through winter.
We love this car and are very grateful for the services it has provided us. It means so much to us when the time comes to part with it we could not just sell it to a stranger nor a dealership.
After some discussions, we all agreed that we should donate it to MPR, a great course! My wife and I listened to your programs regularly and we also very much appreciate that we still have a source of news that provides facts without censorship and bias. We hope our donation will help you with your great work. Keep up the great job!
