A little green with envy over my wife's new ride...

[SantaStephen]

I am thoroughly enjoying the basicness of my current XL, but damn...my wife's new GLE finally arrived the other day and it frankly overwhelming the amount of tech it has. Loving the green color though.

Easy solution. Use Mrs. Clause’s ride for every family trip or long distance rides together

I am guessing you probably do most of the driving, when you are together.

Man, that thing is Veeerrrrrrry Nice.

I can probably count on one hand the number of times my wife has done the driving when we are both together...and we just celebrated our 22nd anniversary in September. The Maverick gets better mpg though...so my butt says Merc but my typical Scottish cheapness says Mav...

The Germans certainly know how to put a car together. The build quality is amazing.

I don't actually drool over many vehicles, but.....wiping my mouth....it is a nice one for sure.

I know what you mean...I did have to adjust my underwear when I saw it backing off the truck.

That is a sweet looking ride. How many Mavericks can I buy for what it cost?

I joked about that exact same thing with her…the options on it are probably more than what my XL cost…heated and cooled cup holders, seriously.

not on this one, she had it in her last one and never used it.

What is the price difference?

Dude that’s a pimpin’ ride fo’ sho’. Wifey bought a 2016 GLC 300 with 20K miles on it last year from Carmax for $22K. It’s mint! But your wife’s ride is fancier. Meanwhile I’m awaiting my Maverick to replace my 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe that’s approaching 205K miles. I bought it used in Dec. 2017 for $6K cash with 70K miles on odo. It was a repaired fender bender thing. Served me well as most mileage was work mileage reimbursed at $0.57/mile. Average 30-40K miles/year. Hopefully the Maverick will help pay for itself.
