Wow! That's some serious exhaust man!!!! Love it!

 

admit it, you just want to drive another CLA or GLB for a week.

 

Is that the problem? I don't blame him or anyone, at least give an S-Class driver an E-Class.

SW, so, how would you rate it versus taking your old LS in for the same issue? MB vs Lexus.

 

LOL, oh yes!

No thats not it lol. Issue with MB is service is it just takes a really long time, they have no urgency to get the car back to you, where Lexus does. I am also getting a 12V starter battery warning even after I have been driving it long enough for it to charge, so I'm going to take it in. They had a cancellation for tomorrow at 9:15 so I'm going to take it by. But as an example, the appointment is tomorrow, I bet they don't even look at it until Monday or Tuesday. At Lexus that would never happen, I would almost certainly have it fixed and back tomorrow.

We're going to WV this weekend but we're taking the Pacifica so it will work out fine.

 

Paint looks good for an old car. How are the wheels? From the pics it looks like they could use some refinishing but it’s hard to tell from the pics.

 

Lookin good!

 

Wheels are in 9.5/10 condition. There's one scuff about an inch long on the outer chrome ring on one of the wheels but that's it. They're just dirty here, take a drive down a block in a Mercedes and the rims get brake dust. When it's time to change pads I'll be looking for pads that aren't so awful with the brake dust.

Thanks! It surprisingly still gets lots of attention with the top up. I guess the black does look pretty good as it matches the tires which draw your eye to those BBS rims.

 

So I set up the internet and the new uConnect in the Pacifica last night for our trip this weekend. The new one has FireTV so you can stream straight over the system, pretty cool. You can watch Netflix and HBO Max and use out YT TV streaming for live TV, I told my wife she should drive and I’ll ride back here!




Can also watch from the front in park:

 

The optional 31" 8K screen in the back of the i7 also has FireTV built in, connected to the car's 5G radio. Another point in its favor.

 

And how did that work out for you? lol

 

Haha true! And now they have signed on to NACS so BMWs will have access to Superchargers

LOL, she didn't seem as excited as I was!

S Class dropped off, have a new C Class loaner which I like a lot actually:

 

That's a cool cockpit in that C class.

 

LOL. No kidding

That screen in the middle looks terrible. The vents looks cheap. That is quite nice that they get you a pretty decent loaner while it's in the shop. Might make the wait a little more worthwhile

 

The vents look misaligned.

 

How? Are you sure you're not just noticing that screen is tilted toward the driver?
