Hello my mbworld buddies!

In case anyone was wondering. My IG buddies know already. I pawned off my AMG to a good friend of mine. I just couldn't do the emotional upkeep anymore. The car just sat and sat in my garage. There weren't a multitude of problems with the car. The front SAM left me stumped. and the multiple bent rims.........But i found the aftermarket for my E55 to be time consuming/dissapointing. Coupled that after the accident with the big rig I kind of lost interest in the car itself. Not the mention the car is 10 years old. All this things combined I figured it was time to move on. And wouldnt you know it, just when i sell it the next day MBUSA announces the offer to the fix gas tank!!!!

So I just added this to my stable. Its a 2013 with 60k miles. Bought the Ford ESP warranty as well from the dealer. It has the front camera, sony mytouch system, sunroof, front camera, rear camera, easy access tailgate, and blue trim (which I really wanted) All the dealers in south florida wanted top dollar and were not willing to negotiate. I had to select one from out of state. This one was in Kansas. This will be my new daily driver. Its gets as much attention as the E55 did.

Speaking of which check out that snaggle tooth front bumper. It came with the vehicle as did the Cooper 35" tires. I am looking to get rid of this massive bumper, its not that bad in person, but i wanted something more conservative (possibly go back to stock) .
The bumper is a little outrageous for the monkey see monkey do part of town I live in.

I love the truck though! If i decide to mod, it will be simple cosmetic items. Like replacing this front bumper. This truck will prob never see offroad but whatever....its what i want right????
Ive gotten a lot of hate from Toyota Fanboys but screw them!

Those things do amazing jumps!

Old news but funny

I've seen a pretty awesome mod for those Raptors. It's pretty simple too. You just take off on the first deserted road you can find and keep going. You'll come back with scratches down the side from brush and it will be covered in dirt and mud. It's a must do!

Oh and congrats on the purchase, by the way. Those Raptors are a beast of a machine!

Congrat for the Raptor. Hope you come back AMG soon !

Some of the roads in SoFl are so bad you need a truck like that to navigate them!
Congrats on the new addition dude

Congrats on your new edition! I was shocked when RBJ told me!

Hey some of the turnpike service plazas provide plenty of elevations when u gotta hit up cozzolis

I've got a friend with a supercharged raptor that's making just over 530hp. I drove it once and was VERY impressed. Love the white I hardly ever see a white one around here

Congrats!We thought about looking at those before buying the Jeep.

Congrats bro, you know those beasts have the c63 AMG motor in it, 6.2ltr v8 just pulling your leg!

They are beasts and very impressive/intimidating in person. A programmer adds nice hp and fuel economy too.

The e55 is a beast of a car, however they do not like to sit for periods of time without been driven. With all the computers in the car, they like to be driven a lot. When it is time, it is time, you just know it.

You can never go wrong with SVT, enjoy!

congrats.

good meeting you Andrew! congrats again on the sale/purchase. Enjoy it in good health.

thanks jon! just saw Shards thread....wow!

thx

i was waiting for your call the check the truck in texas out but sterling told me you found another one

congrats my dude, enjoy it.

Very nice Drew!!! Good luck with it......

I've got a 12 Roush Mustang, so we're both in Fords now!!

Stevie Nicks would be proud of your purchase

Congrats!

She looks purdy! When are we going to see it covered in mud?

Thank you! He's awesome.

I'll give you 1k if you put a GoPro on the front bumper and drive over top of a Prius with that truck. An unmanned Prius of course unless it's Michael Moore's Prius in which case I'll make it 2k and ratchet strap the doors shut first.

Whats cool is there is a camera up front as well.
unfortunately the snaggle tooth blocks it view.
