Thinking about a New ML 550
My 04 Cayenne TT is going back to Porsche in the next two weeks at the end of it's lease after 4 years of misery. [good riddance] and I'm thinking of a new ML 550 as a replacement. I' ve always had Lexus, Porsche, Jags etc, but for the first time I'm contemplating the Mercedes. Can't quite swing the AMG at this time but what should I look for in the way of options, and what should I stay away from. I usually get a fairly loaded vehicle, but only drive it less than 10k per year.
Thoughts and comments, and suggestions are welcome Left-Over 08, or Order an 09? No particular hurry.
This is my first post on this forum, but a regular on F-Chat and 6 speed.
I've attached some "eye candy" of my other daily driver just to keep the reading interesting.
Thanks in advance,
Bob

Two tone interior, Face Lift, Lights, keyless entry, and LED Tails.
