Unhappy My dealer still hasn't gotten any

Both my dealer and the two others I called this area don't have any brochures yet. Also, the G-class brochure is still not available from the MBUSA web site.

Smile Finally got my G500 brochure

My dealer called me today to say that they just recieved a few brochures and I just picked up one. Glad to see part of my $73k is going to pay for a nice glossy brochure which features a punch out cardboard model of a G500!

Dealer installed options include:
Brush gaurd (Grille Gaurd as MBUSA calls it)
AMG 18" wheels (off the G55)
Motorola Timeport or ultracompact V60 portable digital phone
Trailer hitch kit
and more... (no details provided)

Also looks like the US cars won't have parking assistance sensors on the rear bumper like the European cars have.

Hey Robert, rather than a G500 brochure, can you just FedEx me a G500 instead ? I'm sure FJ can use a write off....

Question

awiner,

Ah, but the question would be; are you worthy of such a kind gesture? ...RAB

Did anyone notice?

The new G brochure is REALLY bad. Am I just the wrong demographic for the “new” G? Examples:
“Day Three: bought new clothes to go with my new look”
“Day Ten: Named my new G-“class”
“Day Fifteen: used radios at the mall instead”
“Day twenty-four: attempted some gourmet cooking”
“Day thirty-three: personalized license plates arrived”
“Day fifty two: bought investment property”
“Day Seventy four: sang in truck, rolled windows up”
etc etc etc

Who does MB think is the buyer for this truck that is the workhorse of dozens of militaries? I am sorry but it sounds like vehicle perfectly suited to a 16 yr old girl.
