Thanks to all for the warm welcome to the GL Community. It's nice to know that there are people who have a passion for a nice product, and are willing to share their knowledge, and give advise!

Another great looking GL! Congratulations.
I see you have the ventilated seat option.
Its odd they offer it up there where its cool all year, but here in the desert they don't.

May you have many happy trips in your new GL550.

I know it is kind of odd, because our summers are hot, but really short. I was acctually very surprised to see them when I first saw the GL. But it was a pleasant surprise...
