Thank you. I've signed up.
Would you kindly help with the following questions- there's no easier way to obtain this information than to ask people who have "done it" and are in the know, and so I thank you in advance if you can assist:

1) Can the AMG certificate be combined with the USAA discount?
2) Has the AMG discount ever been greater than $500?
3) The web site is unclear- is it one AMG discount per year, or per calendar year?
4) I've heard about "fleet" before, but I don't know any details. I buy my cars privately, so I am eligible for one USAA discount per calendar year; but I've heard fleet entitles the person to up to 5 USAA discounts. Are there other benefits to fleet? What are the ways somebody qualifies for fleet?

Not compatible with the USAA fleet discount - I found that out today... I am using the USAA control number, 500 bucks for the 2019 wagon/1500 for sedan - rest is irrelevant - no limit on fleet discount for USAA (these are fixed values

AMG private lounge discount can be used with all others. Fleet discount varies depending on company mine is $1500 - one per calendar year ( I think ) and loyalty certificate is a $1000 if you purchased another Mercedes over a certain period ( I think by 6/18) I have been told I can use all together .

AMG private lounge can't be used with Fleet according to my dealer. I used my United discount - $500 of wagon or $1500 of sedan - and couldn't stack the AMG with that.

Yup. Says right on the AMG lounge web site that it cannot be used with fleet.

Buy can it be used with a single, once-per-calendar-year USAA control number?

2018 S560 and 2019 E450 Wagon.
Well maybe on my 2019 the lens up near the mirror are lined up better or something because the distronic on my 2019 does track the lanes a lot better than my 2018 and it does not do strange things like see an exit off the highway and try to cut off the highway following the exit lines. There was a addition which only works when you are nav, the car will slow down for turns, I leave that off along with speed limit adoptions as the car slows too much a lot of the time. Speed limit adoption can cause the car to abruptly slow down raising the risk of a accident.

Did you speak with someone at MBUSA to get the $5,000 and 2 years or did your dealer step up to bat for you?

This was strictly me. I became that guy that emailed everyone on the C suite contact list, in both german and english about my extreme disappointment in the brand due to delays with my first order (a GLC63) and wanting a different car (E63S wagon). They issued a consumer retention incentive which took about 3 weeks total to get.

Emphasized this was my first experience with the brand, that I am a young car geek that has always owned BMW/Audi, and was extremely disappointed in a brand that is supposed to generate customers for life.

What was announced was an improved distronic based on route navigation. The system looks at the map and antecipates the speed limits and road conditions. This is what was put on the S class, but still lacking the magic body control system.

Yeah, i also doubt the speed limits signs detection works properly and not leading to abrupt deceleration...
