New GL450

Mercedes GL450








Purchased that last Monday, Pictures taken last Tuesday, Also tuesday took it on a long vacation.
When we Returned, the odometer is showing 2300 Miles and it was a fun ride.

Glad we purchased this car over the Escalade, RangeRover, and the Lexus BIG SUV LX i think.

I just washed the car today aFter the long ride, looks just like new.. Ill put more pics in a few days.

Anupat,

Nice ride. I typically don't like chrome on white, but must say, your wheels look great.

Enjoy the ride throughout Texas (or wherever you may be). Don't worry, we're not all axe murderers like Waiting-4-550 thought.
