Thinking about purchasing a 2003 ML500 with 122k miles. Couldn't find any negative reviews or problem areas other than gas mileage. Information would be helpful from anyone with experience with this truck!
Thanks!

I bought mine in October '10. 78,000 miles and a beautiful machine. However since then, * Rear seat was stuck in down position. Need new release cable. * Replaced hoods struts. * Replaced 3rd brake light (center). * Replaced license plate light. *Replaced lower ball joints. *Trip computer stoped working. I pulled fuses 13 & 22 and replaced. Computer is now working w/no light.

It seems every day is a new adventure with this thing. I'm not so sure about it. Good luck.
