MB Diesel Taxi's in the US?

While in Washington DC for Memorial Day last year, I saw an older black ('83 - '85 era) MB diesel wagon that was in service as a taxi.

It drove within 10 feet of me, from behind as my wife & I crossed the street, and from the sound of the engine I knew before I even saw it that it was a diesel MB.

Unfortunatley the guy was in a hurry, and I couldn't flag him down. I'd loved to have talked with the driver and seen the odometer.

So - who else has seen older MB diesels in service as Taxi's in the US...?
