First GL450!

Picked up a new 2011 GL450 on Saturday. My first. Palladium Silver, Premium 1, 3-zone climate control, Parktronic, Blind Spot Assist, appearance package, running boards, etc. Traded in a 2010 GLK350. We just had a baby so we needed more space. Getting the car seat in and out of the GLK was less than ideal. Considered the ML, but ultimately decided to go big or just stick with the GLK. We are leasing. The 27-month lease rates were really low with our trade-in and the USAA discount. First car I've ever leased. Any others leasing a GL out there?

Sounds great. Leasing is a far better game with the Diesel, to be honest, but as long as you are happy with the truck and payments, you are good for the next 27 months. With a 450 you will likely always be upside-down, in my experience.
