changes to the fleet....

Spent an exhausting 4 hours getting it done (that includes lunch), but we successfully got my daughter into her own X253, a 2017 with Sport Package, Night Package, and a beautiful saddle brown & black leather interior with black ash wood trim. Traded the ML so new sig pic coming soon....

Great color combo. Any other features? Parktronic or others?

Ventilated seats is about it for convenience options. We have Parktronic on the other two cars and never use it (me, I'm afraid of it!)

Oh wow ventilated seats are one thing we do not have. I used the distronic in stop and go traffic yesterday. It was very nice.

I agree the parking thing is something I will use only once in a while.

we have pedestrian and cross traffic warning. I hope I never get to test it

ventilated seats requires leather seats, and my wife said she didn't need them in the GLC so I acquiesced. heck, my daughter even said she didn't care about leather: she wanted to go look at a white one about an hour north and I lobbied for this one an hour south. with AMG Line and Night Package plus the seats, it had to have been about $2700 more than the white one when new, and it looks evil and sporty, vs. the soccer mom look the white one had. I use my ventilated seats year-round; with the heated seats on in winter it keeps me from getting sweaty.

I hear you there; I've had the pre-safe brakes engage several times on the C Class and it's both unnerving and reassuring at the same time.
