I hadn't been to this website in some time so I hadn't updated my vehicle. I actually tried disabling it. The CLK500 I had never grew on me and I got rid of it about 6 months later. I ended up buying a Yukon Denali and have been driving that. I had been keeping my eyes out for an extremely low mileage clk55 and finally found it two weeks ago- they are delivering it tommorow and I am taking it to Racing Zone in tampa after it gets here.

Thanks!

It was rather simple. Its just a matter of how receptive your woman is and how much she is into making you happy.

My tactics include 1-2 catalogs, open websites for the Nav system, and that was pretty much it.

We called a few places to see if any were in stock, but no one seemed to have it. We'll be making a few more calls Monday to try and locate the unit.

Well, after calling & searching around, we found a place that has it... and we will be off to pick it up after work tonight.

I'm pretty excited... Once I get a few things sorted out, I'll install it this weekend...

I post updates soon...
