2011 Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec – Mint Luxury All-Wheel Drive SUV

Absolutely Loaded, Dealer Maintained, Original Owner, 4-Wheel Drive, Garaged

You are considering an exceptionally well maintained, (dealer serviced), all-wheel drive, pristine 2011 Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec Clean Diesel SUV.  This Luxury Sport Utility Vehicle is amazingly immaculate, inside and out (see photos). The vehicle has always been garaged, both at home and at work. This is my wife’s primary vehicle, mostly for a 15 mile commute to work each day. We purchased the vehicle new from the local Mercedes-Benz dealership.  My wife and I are a late -30’s couple, married, and mature. We are replacing the vehicle with a mini-van in preparation for the arrival of our three babies (yes, we are having triplets!). We hate to let the vehicle go, however it no longer meets our needs.

This is our first of many Mercedes-Benz…we are truly impressed with the fit and finish. The vehicle is well engineered and thoroughly designed down to every last detail. We purchased this vehicle brand new with most every luxury and option offered by Mercedes-Benz, including factory installed trailer hitch and running boards.  The clean diesel engine is truly incredible, with great fuel economy accompanying commanding towing power.  This ML350 is loaded:

Condition Summary:

Again, we purchased this beautiful ML-350 BlueTec brand new from the local Mercedes-Benz Dealer.  The vehicle was my wife’s primary vehicle, mostly for a 15 mile commute to work each day and now has 31,423 original miles.  The vehicle is being kept clean in our 3 car garage until sold, with less than an additional 100 – 200 miles before sale.  The Mercedes is extremely clean and shows nearly “like new” (see pictures).  There not any major or minor dents, dings, scratches or unexpected damage on this vehicle.  There are a few very, very expected insignificant imperfections in the paint here and there from open road travel and daily use, but you have to look very, very closely to identify them.

This Mercedes-Benz remains is such pristine condition because of my attention to detail.  It has always been garaged, both at home and work.  I routinely wash and wax the vehicle.  Additionally, the interior is immaculate with very infrequent rear passenger use.  We are both NON-Smokers.

This Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec is truly immaculate!  Please see the photos, they speak for themselves.

Mercedes testing C-Class plug-in hybrid modes in Germany

Wed, 07 May 2014

Testing appears to be underway for what would be the first Mercedes-Benz C-Class with a hybrid powertrain. We can see a pair of the prototypes undergoing testing in Germany, with one, a C-Class Wagon, still heavily clad in camouflage and featuring a more noticeable outlet on the passenger side of its rear bumper.
There's also a more production-looking sedan, which features a not-so-discreet flap over its rear-bumper outlet. It's difficult to speculate on power outputs for this fuel-sipping C-Class, although our spies seem to think that this car will feature some combination of a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor, although just which four is unclear (note, we wouldn't mind if MB fit its 2.0-liter turbo with some batteries and motors). Regardless, the four-pot/electric motor seems like a pretty reasonable combo, although it probably means that Mercedes won't be challenging the six-cylinder-powered system of the BMW ActiveHybrid3 any time soon.
When the plug-in C-Class arrives later this year as a 2015 model, it will likely offer a full range of driving modes, including both gas or electric, only, as well as a more traditional hybrid mode.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

Mercedes teams with Pebble for smartwatch tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

Most automakers have realized by now that a good infotainment system is a must-have feature for many buyers, and have, as a result, invested increasing amounts of time and money developing these technologies. But some automakers are going above and beyond in-car entertainment and navigation technology by focusing on wearable technology as well.
Nissan has emerged as one such company, developing its own alternative to Google Glass and performance-oriented smartwatch. But Mercedes-Benz is also putting itself at the forefront of wearable tech - not by developing competing products to those designed by dedicated tech companies, but by working with them. The German automaker, as we recently reported, is developing its own app for Google Glass, and is now doing the same with smartwatches as well.
Set to be unveiled at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Mercedes has collaborated with Pebble Technologies to develop the Digital DriveStyle app. The system will display tell its wearer where the car is, whether the doors are locked and if it needs fuel. Inside the car it'll alert the driver to potential hazards coming up on the road, while making functions like re-routing the nav system, controlling the audio system or activating Siri that much easier.
