Post by: Ryan on February 20, 2015, 07:15:58 PM: That Mercedes is awesome. The Ml series us nice enough then add over 500 hp and AMG styling. And a tow rating of 7200 it's a legit tow rig that can get to 60 in 4 seconds.

Post by: Callelle on February 26, 2015, 07:24:55 PM: Don't get me wrong, I love Mercs and it's an AMG, it can't not be exciting. It's just that it looks like a normal SUV, where's the over the top AMG look. No mini guns or laser beams for windshield wipers.

Post by: rejeep on August 12, 2018, 05:40:52 PM: Blew something in the cooling system bombing down to Canandaigua yesterday..
Ended up letting it cool a bit at the Cheshire Union and basically rolling it down Duel Rd. to the cottage..
Throwing the keys at the dealer tomorrow AM.. they can go fetch it..

They had the truck for 2 weeks doing a bunch of odd and end stuff..
Seems more than coincidental that they pulled the intake to replace a runner valve and less than 100 miles later some upper engine coolant issue...
