[QUOTE="MapleDots, post: 2296327, member: 322549283"] In Canada all MB dealers now have to be called Mercedes-Benz and the city or region name So because this dealer is in a twin city which is always referred to as Kitchener-Waterloo they had little choice. They are in Kitchener but could have dropped the waterloo but because they are exclusive to both territories this part was mandated so... Mercedes-Benz-Kitchener-Waterloo.ca the only optional part would have been the hyphen between Benz and Kitchener and the hyphen between Kitchener and waterloo. So they were pretty well stuck and needed something shorter for email ie Mercedes-BenzKW.com but the .ca was taken by someone with foresight. The cats meow would have been [email]info@mbkw.ca[/email] as a small redirect for the long url. I do that with one of my businesses with a long name, I redirect the acronym to the long and use the acronym for email. Unbelievable they did not think of MBKW and my 12 year old son did. [/QUOTE]
