Bye bye w204 =[

Thank you everyone for contributing to this forum. I have been here for years and just traded my baby for this:



I needed a seven seater now that i have two kids. Narrowed down to this. My heart belongs here and i will always be back to visit. I love this site.

Oh.... I have a pair of Weathertech floor liners front and back in black from my 09. It kept my interior in mint condition. $130.00 shipped if any takers.

Hate to see you go Phrank! Your car's still my motivation for what I hope my Iridium Silver C350's gonna look like. Sigh :3 Anywhoo, grats on the new ride!

Here's the pic I hold onto for inspiration :3 And for a final salute!

Congrats on the new ride but I wouldn't exactly say you are leaving the Benz family...the bones on your new ride look to be from the GL.

Another round of ICE
The Durango shares a platform with the Grand Cherokee, both built at the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Michigan. And, those both share a platform with the MB M-Class, so you have not strayed far at all! The reviews on Grand Cherokee and Durango, whether the new Phoenix V6 or legendary Hemi, have been outstanding...congrats and enjoy!

Thx, thats the beauty of buying cars, a heck load of options and now that everyone is stepping their game up, it should be even harder. I was so mad at the the things my car didnt have for the price i paid. Now a Kia has equivalent options as a Benz w/ better warranty, not saying a Kia > Benz, but you get the drift, look at Hyundai.

True, gas will suck though because i got a Hemi and i don't tow shiz, but i chose it because i like a little kick. I actually feel like im in a car as big as this thing is. Plus the keyfog looks the same lol.

Yup, i wish i could of got a GL, but i wont buy a car if it isnt loaded to the max and a GL would of broke my bank. I have everything i need in this one.

- Nav/ Alpine Audio/ Rear Ent.
- HEMI 5.7 V8 - 360HP/390TQ
- Nappa leather w/ French seams
- 3rd row/ auto leveling HID bi xenons
- parktronic/rear cam/ blindspot assist
- push start/ keyless entry/ auto tailgate/ auto start
- sunroof or moonroof, whatever you call it.
- heated steering wheel/tri zone temp.
- Blutooth/sirus/push to start
- heated & ventilated front/heated rear seats
- tow pkge/skid plate pkge

Im sure i left a few things out, but all this for 50k in my Citadel vs. 70-80k in a GL, no disrespect to GL owners, but i'll pass.

Thank you sir. Family comes first. My Benz was starting to look liked i lived in it haha. The 3rd row is wonderful, i just need to get another booster seat and i'm set. I love the Recaro's.

That means a lot to me. Thanks, this site brings a lot of inspiration in general. I love the direction the new 2012 C class is going, wish i could mod that baby. Again i will never leave the site, but now that i have a family whip, hopefully i can work on my hobby ride.

What sucks though is that there are not really any good Dodge/Durango forums, actually they all suck. Hopefully some of these tuners decide to help me out too lol. I have a few things i want to do, will keep you guys posted if you want. Kind of feel like a poser now that i don't have a benz lol.

Nothing, i parted out slowly over the past year. Wish i kept the Philips Ultinon 6000k's/ my merc license plate cover/ some of my LED bulbs, but it was all in the moment and i just let them go as is.
