Jack,
I see that your steering wheel is all leather. I was under the impression that the GL550 came standard with the wood/leather wheel. Does that mean that your steering wheel is heated?

I will take that one for you, Jack. I still have ground to make up

You can get heating package in 550 which includes heated rear seats and heated steering wheel. Wood steering cannot be heated and so in 550s with heating package, you get "upgraded" to all leather wheel.

The leather wheel is optional (no cost) and since I bought the car in Denver, they order their cars with the heated leather wheel. The order was locked when I made the deal. I would have preferred the wood/leather but the leather is nice for a change.

Your Canon and GL were made for each other, NJ. You just happen to get the best of that relationship

I shot that after 2 miles of off road at 50 mph! The desert sand knows my cars though since I make it look so good in the pictures and just goes around me when I drive through it.

My cars never get "dirty"...LOL

Doesn't look like the desert to me....

Just had the GL serviced and shot a couple of pics in the driveway. Tough sun position this time of day.

Looks like an AMG to me....

Forgot to check this morning while at the local MB for service about the AMG Badge. Will have to wait until after I return from my trip in November.
