2022 GLC 4Matic
So, I did a thing...

Hello All, It is with a heavy heart, although lighter each day, that I report I have traded in my much loved, well used 2014 GLK for a 2022 GLC 4Matic. I want to thank everyone in this group for all the help and advice over the years.
The car has under 10,000 mile on it, Lunar Blue Metallic, Tan over black interior with dark grain walnut, Pana roof and a modest suite of electronics. It is a CPO, with an unlimited mileage warranty through January 2028.
My former GLK was a base model RWD White over Tan over dark brown with dark burl, 140,000 miles. She was starting to send up flares and although I had addressed the coils, the Cat and replaced the brake hardware and serviced her religiously, I had my concerns. She was a salvage title car, well repaired but showing her age and I do need the 4 wheel capabilities during the winter snows, currently falling, so I moved on. I'll still be on here as PACIFMAN in the GLC forum.

Thanks Again!
PACIFICMAN

Bon voyage, PM... after you have a chance to live with the GLC, wander back here and let us know how it stacks up against your GLK. Might be interesting! And we all do have to think about "eventually" when (if?) we actually wear out our GLKs... ;-)

Well, at the very least, you've staying with MB 👍

We too, have a 2014 GLK350 Base ... just drove to grocery earlier and see we now have 90k US miles - bought it at about 18k miles. No 4wd required around here in south central Texas.

Anyway, enjoyed your company out here, and at least you'll still be hanging out in the forum - and enjoy the new GLC!
