Road Trip!!!

I just got back from a little road trip!!! 14 day and 4,500 miles!!!

Not One Problem!!! No Complains!!!!

Mileage was awesome!!!

The Benz was perfect!!!

I did get pulled over for doing 88 mph in a 70 mph zone. Talked it down to a warning. The cop was real interested in the car and wanted to know all about it.

I went from Atlanta to DC to NYC to Myrtle Beach to jacksonville back to Atlanta.

Am planning to go to Miami and the Keys next maybe around x-mas.

Very comfortable.

There was me, my wife and my 10 year old daughter.

No complaints from either of them.

i like MB seats. people complain they are too hard, i find them comfortable. i dont like squishy seats like those you would find in a cadillac.

i made a trip to chicago and my back started to ache a little. i'm in real good shape too, but i still think lumbar support is a must on the seats. maybe it is just me.

The only thing I would want different on the seats is like on my Expidition it will push Cold Air from the AC thru the seats and cool them.

Wonderful when you are sitting for a long time.

you can get the CLK heated/vented seats. they have fans that cool the seats. im going to add those by next summer.

sunman is putting them in his C320 sedan. i think he said around $2000 for the retrofit. dont quote me that. you would have to ask him. he jsut received the bottom seat cushions. the switch row i have for parktronic has the heated/vented seat buttons since im planning the retrofit.
