It seems like everybody's building big grills. Every year they get bigger.
I'm trying to figure out what year has the "least unattractive" grill, since I'm considering a new car.

2026 technology nowadays? Naah am not driven by a budget to get into a 6-7 year old tech. Honestly, driving a new car in 2026 without phone as a key alone is just stupid to me. Am so upset that left so many models behind in the 2020-2026 era over the years… Even wireless carplay did not make it until 2024 on a car like GLS? And still 2024-2026 for many other models and sedan without phone as key, nor highway advanced hands-free driving and loads of other tech options that are becoming common? That sucks.

PS: I should add I never truly enjoyed my 2024 GLS and couldn't wait to get rid of it as I got one of the first facelifted ones that rolled out of the factory and it had terrible built quality with various cabin noises, namely a noise from a loose hatch gate lock assembly (which took 3-4 dealer visits and 2-3 weeks of car being parked there to sort out) and ongoing spring noises from the 2nd row seats which were actually never fixed and even got worse after one of my multiple dealer visits. Lesson learned the hard way was to never rush to get a newly revised model and wait a year or so for it to mature a bit.

We checked within 1000 miles for something on the lot and since we are spending $100k+, wanted to be right.
Found one in Louisiana (10 hours each way driving) that was nearly perfect but the dealer was coming down like $6k on a $107k MSRP 2026. Seems most are at $6-6.5k on a 26 since they know we want specific equipment. I got a better discount ordering a new GLC back in the day.
Pretty much gave up on the 26 route... seems what we want is hard to find and would rather pay more to get it since the plan is to keep it for 7-8 years/100k miles.
I offered $105k OTD on this one to come fly and get it, and they said no... we were $2500 apart. I could have come around but the dealer was being a douchebag and mansplaining the deal to me.
