Yes I believe you are making this up. Nobody can dictate what car you can drive in the company. Heck I have better cars than the executives in my company and they are paid for. I have a1998 MB Ml320 and a1997 MB E420. And they do not tell me that only executives can drive such a car. That is preposterous. Unbelievable!
