| GL-Class Revealed |
We'll get the US revealing of the Long Wheel Base M-Class in January at the Detroit Auto Show. It looks like the GL-Class is the LWB M-Class with off-roading package and Pre-Safe. The Mercedes web site has a preview of this 2007 model on their web site.

| Review of Master-Pull Recovery Gear and TruckAir Compressor |
As winter is upon us, it's important to have some good safety gear in your ML. I've put up a review of the Master-Pull recovery kit (an interesting recovery strap alternative) and the TruckAir compressor (an inexpensive high-performance air pump).

| 2005 M-Klasse Experience In Germany |
Birger wrote up a nice summary of the Bitburg session. I can't believe all the stuff they get compared to the American events, including an off-roading track in the mud and woods!

| 2005 MB M-Class Road Rally In Boston |
Went to the M-Class Road Rally in Boston on 6/19/05. Disappointingly, all the MLs they brought had no airmatic suspension.

| MB M-Class Tour |
Not sure why MB is having two separate events, but this one has 25 locations. Looks like only 1 track instead of 2 at the Road Rally event.

| MB M-Class Road Rally Event |
Mercedes is having a driving event featuring the new W164 redesign in Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Jersey, New York, Orange County, San Francisco, and Washington DC. Note the lack of off-roading track in this event. And no Boston event for me :-(

| First non-MB W164 Pictures |
Curt Rich wrote up his impressions from the sales training they had on the W164. I can't believe there's so much emphasis on cupholders! Has the car shopper truly degraded to a person who counts the number and size of cupholders?!? And MB considers the major W164 competitor to be the RX330?!? Sigh. :-(
