Travels with Mister Metris

Recently, Fleet Owner got a chance to take a Mercedes Benz 2017 model Metris passenger van on an extended week-long test drive, covering a total of 945.8 miles on a long, looping journey across seven states: Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. Of particular interest: how the safety technology offered on the Metris, such as blind spot assist, improved the driving experience. (Photos: Sean Kilcarr/Fleet Owner)
