ML320CDI 2008 all options inc air suspension
221 kph down a slight hill and the speed limiter kept me from going any faster. Still had quite a few revs left. Ride is rock solid smooth and quiet at top end

06 ML500 sport with airmatic, got it up to 92mph towing a 14 foot long, 7ft wide and 6ft tall trailer (4000 lbs). Was very surprised on how stable it was. I Love blowing away the domestic tow vehicles!

You gotta take her out on the weekends and let her run.

Don't be cruel.

I love it! Fits a phrase that came to mind when I bought mine- "Haulin junk and Haulin A#@!"

I probably have gotten her up to 95-100 on the Turnpike tops. I try not to push my luck with the state troopers.

Buck 35 on the way to Vegas-
Just did a buck Oh 5 for a moment on the freeway tonite when I blew away an annoying Caddie CTS who was weaving thru city traffic passing everyone and acting cool.
Fortunately, he got on the freeway and got on it in front of me and when I blew past him there was nothing he could do about it- I slowed to 85 and he stayed wayyyyy... back-Smoked by a big ol' SUV...Bye Bye...
