Questions about some features/options
I'm about to place an order for a MY14 ML350 but had a few questions:
1) USB port - I've read numerous posts about the USB port and charging. Is there a special MB cable or do I use the standard Apple cable? Am I correct in the USB port will charge a iPod while connected but not a iPhone?
2) Ambient Lighting option - can the brightness/intensity be adjusted?
3) Prepaid Star Service - if I purchase this option at one dealer, do I have the option of having my vehicle maint performed at any other MB dealer? Which option (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) is the best value?

A gaggle of MB's
Please understand the service pack can be programmed into the lease - is not automatically included - and yes, since the cost of the service pack cost is "residualized" - yes, in essence your real cost that you "pay" is about 1/2.

Yes maintenance at any dealer. I purchased 3 service pack, it was somewhere around 750$. Seemed like the best deal out of them all.
