It's not easy getting older, but ultimately all of us get to a point where we have to start making lifestyle (and automotive) choices that adjust for changing physical needs. Certain types of seats are no longer comfortable, for example, and statistics show that people over the age of 55 start experiencing discomfort in joints that can make getting in and out of certain types of vehicles challenging and/or painful.

Luckily, there are plenty of vehicles available right now for people experiencing some of these problems. Senior citizens like a low door threshold, technology that assists with parking, and comfortable seats, preferably with lumbar support. Luckily, we here at Fields Motorcars have a great option for these people in the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

The E-Class vehicles, in fact, are so appropriate for seniors that Edmunds included them on a list of the ten best earlier this year. With features like heated, power-adjustable seats with lumbar support, a thick tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, rear backup camera, large dashboard controls, high-contrast instrument panel, auto-dim and low-glare power mirrors and parallel parking assistance, it's easy to see how this particular luxury vehicle would help certain older drivers to handle their business both comfortably and safely.

When it comes to new and used cars in Lakeland, FL, a few stand out as ideal purchases for senior citizens, and as far as we're concerned the latest Mercedes-Benz E-Class is right at the top of the list. Getting older isn't easy, but that doesn't mean one's automotive experience has to suffer. With features like those mentioned above, driving after age 55 should be a breeze.
