It's still sitting here, but it's no snowmobile. I wouldn't mind a ML in the same color for towing and bad weather. Sounds like I want something from this century and not a 1998-1999. I had thought they were mechanically identical to my S210 4matic, but it turns out the ML has a dual range transfer case that's less reliable than the C and E class cars. Last one I looked at had a transfer case warning light "it's just the shift solenoid, an easy and cheap fix", a huge exhaust or manifold leak on the right bank, and a very soft feeling torque converter. The dark green paint had a lot of blue in it, would not make a matching set with my W140. Front carpet missing, but it's got some good rubber mats in it. Body was rock solid underneath if anybody wants a cheap project truck. http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/cto/5792786880.html Speaking of cheap, before I found the green one in Columbus I was thinking of buying this burgundy ML55 in Okemos, might still take a look at it this weekend: http://lansing.craigslist.org/cto/5789622984.html _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
