It's a hell of a detour, depending on what route you're taking to Williams.

Saturday is the day we do a group ride where everybody rides together to a destination. For the past couple of years, that ride has been to Jerome. Then on Sunday, folks head home. We have people riding in from Utah, Kansas, Colorado, California and of course, Arizona.

Okay, now I'm in trouble. You see, having a black 320, I've been mouthing off about how the black looks so much better with the chrome and on the white it just fades in and doesn't look that good.

Clearly, I've been quite mistaken. Your GL looks great. In the vernacular of the kids these days, I've been "pwned." "Total pwnage." I may have even "self-pwned."

I think I have a "pwner."

I agree Jen.

Notice the similarity of the grill to the current GL550 and the size of the TriStar.

But, I bet they wouldn't sell a single GL. Would certainly make our GL's much more valuable though.

I particulary like your van.

Just kidding. In all seriousness, you've got a couple of beautiful vehicles. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I bought them on eBay at the following site. It looks like the price has increased.

decisions, decisions... wrestling with color choices for GL.
I love the Obsidian Black, but I know it would be dirty most of the time.
Weather much like Las Vegas here, though a bit cooler. Much dust from cement plant.
Anyone point me to a pix of a 2008 GL in silver? MB website pix terrible, too small. I'd like to get a comparison between silver and pewter.

NVJack, thanks, found the site for the pedals.

I think if you will go back through the pages of this thread you will see some pics of Pewter and Silver GL's. I would agree with "cement plant" nearby it those two colors may be best for you.

Thanks for the links and thoughts.
Silver looks A-OK...now have too many colors I like! Is it always so difficult?
