GLE 350 4matic
New guy with an '18 GLE 350 4matic saying hello....

Hi all, just bought this certified 2018 GLE 350 4matic with 25,000 miles, then joined this forum and wanted to say hello. The more I drive it the more I love it, the only thing I will do to it is replace the new Dunlops with Nokians WR G4 SUV's due to the sometimes unpredictable New England winters. It's black on black with black anthracite and a black headliner, It came with a premium package, not sue which, Harman Kardon Logic 7 audio with either 830 watts or 450 watts, and either 12 or 14 speakers, lol. It has park assist, puddle lights and chrome hood vents, also came with factory Mercedes crossbars. Super happy so far, with the exception of the headlights, wish the were a bit brighter. A bit of a learning curve ahead but not to bad. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome! Great looking GLE. The 2018-2019 X/W166 GLS/GLE are the best preowned MBs on the market today imo. Reliable, nice performance and comfortable and luxurious when fully optioned.

Try having a look through the W166 GLE section of the site, this was posted in the GLS section. Lots of helpful owners are on the site.
