Up for consideration is a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550.

It runs and operates exactly as Mercedes-Benz intended. There are no funny noises, no driving quirks and certainly
no drips or leaks. No warning lights. All maintenance is current. It is an absolute pleasure to drive. If you
didn't know, you'd think it was a brand new SUV from the way it drives and operates. Truly, it's that nice. It is
a true testament to Mercedes quality.

Everything, and I mean everything, works exactly as Mercedes' designers and engineers intended.

The seats are in gray leather. The front seats are heated, air conditioned and are massaging! They, of course,
have memory and lumbar support. The wood trim is honest-to-goodness genuine burl walnut. No cheap plastic here!
The third-row seats have Mercedes' EASY-ENTRY™ feature. The second- and third-row seats fold flat and the second
row has the optional pass-through feature. The four doors have the cool soft-close feature. No need to slam 'em!
Just give the doors a gentle touch and they pull themselves closed and latched securely.

There is Bluetooth interface for hands-free calling. Bluetooth connectivity for audio streaming. MP3 media
interface. Mercedes' COMMAND™ navigation. A color display central controller. Equipped with harmon/kardon
LOGIC7™ surround sound with 830 watts stereo output. The car also has the rear seat entertainment system with
headphones that is a $1,950 extra-cost option. Two 115-volt AC power outlets. The car has a changeable ambient
lighting package for the interior.

There is a 360-degree surround view camera system. (You'll never again skin your front bumper on a curb with this
feature!) Anti-theft alarm system. Automatically folding outside rearview mirrors. Unlock and lock doors with
the wave of your hand. Power liftgate. ISOFIX™ (for child safety seats) anchoring on all rear seats.

One of the nicest features the SUV has is the Driver Assist Package™, a $1,950 option. This includes DISTRONIC
PLUS™ (with PRE-SAFE™ brakes) active blind spot assist and active lane-keeping assist. (I have actually tested
the braking feature by taking my hands off the steering wheel and my foot off the brake pedal and have come up at
35 mph behind cars stopped at a traffic light and the car stayed in the lane and came to a full stop without me
ever touching the brake pedal!!! Scary? YES! But way cool!

Daimler exec hypothetically discusses 3-cylinder engines for small hybrids

Wed, Mar 26 2014

Is three the magic number of cylinders for Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler and its efforts to build smaller powertrains for its compact hybrids? Potentially, yes, the German automaker could see the need for three-cylinder mills, Automotive News reports. The company doesn't have any plans for them as of yet, though. Daimler executive Bernhard Heil talked with Automotive News about the challenges of using four-cylinder engines in a front-wheel-drive setup and said that three-cylinder engines could work in transverse-mounted powertrains for hybrid cars. For now, though, the company doesn't actually have any plans to go in that direction, Mercedes-Benz spokesman Christoph Horn said in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen. Horn wrote that Heil "actually said that if ever MB would use a three-cylinder engine than [it would be] in a configuration where space is restricted, such as when using a hybrid power train in a compact car." Of course, the only compact "hybrid" that Mercedes-Benz has is the 2015 C-Class, but that refers to the "hybrid" body is made of 48-percent aluminum, up from the current nine percent, as well as steel. It has nothing to do with the powertrain. Beyond that, there's always the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid that the company unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show last fall, but that model, which will debut in Europe later this year and arrive stateside next year, has a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 and an 80-kilowatt electric motor that propels the plug-in from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 5.5 seconds. Not exactly three-cylinder territory, that.
