Cool My New Gl450

My New Gl450-2008-gl-450.jpgFunny thing happened, I went to Mercedes dealer to have my 2007 s-550 serviced and I wound up trading it in for a 2008 s-550 AMG and while I was there I liked the GL450 so much I bought one of them too. Guess I better stay away from Mercedes benz for oil changes any more.

Thanks, usually I drive a ford f-350 Dually 4x4 or my Bentley Turbo R which handles very nicely in our Chicago winters.

Congrats, both cars are amazing! There are (or were) quite a few people on this forum with S550s. I wish you the best of luck explaining this one to your wife.

That's what you get for hanging around the showroom. Oh wait a minute, the same thing happened to me. I was ordering my SL, and the GL caught my eye. I ended up signing papers for both cars on the same day.
