Well at least you're replacing a Benz with a Benz.

All the best, Jack.

There are certain features I will miss on the S but I don't think the S is "a much better car" than the GL necessarily. The S is the top of it's class as a sedan and the GL it at the top of it's class as an SUV. It depends on what suits your needs and wants. I enjoyed the experience of the S Class and now I am sure I will enjoy the experience of the GL Class. In a couple of more years I will probably be looking for another MB to play with...:-)

Sad to see you are letting the beautiful S550 go so quickly. I am betting you will buy something similar again. congratulations Jack on your GL can't wait for some photos of your new car/SUV.

Thanks. I agree on the COMAND. The GL has the system I had on the '06 S430. I don't imagine they will update the COMAND in the GL until they have a major facelift or new model.
