Mercedes-Benz ML350
Introductions:

Hey Everyone, my name is Justin and on Oct. 31st I went in and purchased my first ever Benz. Ever since I saw the spy photos of the SUV, I was like "DAMN thats a nice car"

I had a Dodge Charger I bought when I was 19, now 26 I needed to upgrade to something more grown up and more refined. Plus the Dodge Charger was a Daytona Yellow...

I live in VA, and even though it doesn't snow much here, I am looking forward to doing some safe testing with the ML350 in the snow...I really hope it does well...or I will trade it in when Benz releases the real ON&OFF road package next year with locking-diff and a lot of off road goodies.

My Benz is Steel Grey with black interior and wood trim, and I have Package 1, with a couple other options.

I am averaging around 22 mpg and I think the car is very well so far.

Looking forward to some good topics with you guys.

My garage also holds a BMW 135i that I bought for my lady last year.
