GL450

my best friends mom drives one and has 22,000 miles on it and it is a 2006 model. She has no problems with the car and loves it. BTW I recommended the gl450 to her.

 

You sure about that Vic? I'm pretty sure that the GL debuted as an '07 model.

 

22K miles in less than a year as a mother? where does that woman drive!

 

to the clubs in windsor ?

 

John, all that means is DCX wrote a cheque.

 

what high school do u attend vic ? west bloomfield ?

 

Just a tip, if you are buying a VERY heavy SUV, purchase it with the largest engine available. I's go for the 500/550. BTW a friend purchased a GL last spring and is very happy with it so far. Seem so have good reliability with no issues.

No dice - the only available engine so far is a 335-horsepower 4.7-liter V8. The 5.5-liter V8 that all the "550" models now use, which has 382 horsepower, isn't available on the GL, or on any Mercedes SUVs yet.

 

Actually the only thing I didn't like about the GL450 was the lack of torque. I had thought the 550 was out by now, didn't realise they were not available yet. The rest of the car was nice. But if you don't need to tow or actually use it as a SUV, it's ok.

opps my fault! she got it in the summer. (she is a "ceo" mom) and drives very far. her business is 20 miles away. and I go to andover, why do you ask?

 

has the footbal team won any games in the past decade ?

 

Your numbers don't add up, Vik. Driving 20 miles each way for work, even if it's every day, doesn't add up to 22,000 miles.

Also, since she "got it in the summer", I'm guessing that she's had it 8 months at best? Does she drive 80+ miles per day, every day?

 

oh yeah, they won all but the homecoming game this season. They have former lions coach steve mariucci 's son on the team.

 

she drives alot. i guess she could drive 80 miles a day! Shes not my mom!

 

enjoy that little bubble while u can. is toma still the principal? bang every girl u can no matter how ugly. once your in college nobody will care.

 

nope, new principal, Hiedi Katula ( AKA Ugly dutchy) What class were you? and your full name?

 

a graduated in 89 at the hight of the chaldian mafia and bag cell phones (remember those?)

 

um....I know that there are hundreds on chaldians in my school. there is even a chaldian "hallway". And about the cellphone thing, There is no such memory of a cell phone being bigger than a fingernail.

 

i guess that explains the drop from in ranking from the 60's to the 150's / of the 200 top high schools. what about lahser ?

consider yourself (your parents ) lucky to be able to attend a public high school

 

John-

I think you'll be very pleased with the GL450. I got one in July and have been quite impressed. Plenty of torque, plenty of HP and excellent fit and finish. Good luck.
