How about a 2001 M-B E-class supercab pickup truck?! I could definitely see the Daytona hump the ass of that thing on the way to a track day!!

I like cruising eBay for "other" Audis, MBs, Jags, and BMWs. It's called dreaming... unfortunately.

I like the look of the new E-class, but I'm not a fan of the electronic interference that MB is building into everything. I'd truly HATE any computer trying to decide how much pressure I *really* mean to apply to the brakes. Gotta love the E55 motor, though!

But you know I'm an Audi guy, so I'd like to see some one make a pickup truck out of an RS6 Avant! :drool

I want both! Sell the goofy rims on the pickup and get some AMG hoops. The AMG wagon is sahweet! And no, I'm not being sarcastic!

I think I'd choose a 395hp Supercharged 327 that can actually close the tailgate with a bike in the back at almost 1/2 the cost....:clap .....but that's just me.....

Eh, it's just a truck. :shrug

Yeah, What gets me about trucks is the wide price range. Is a fully loaded full size truck worth 20,000 dollars more than it's base model? I don't get. I guess it's all about what you are willing to pay.

Around here right now you can get an 03 leftover Ex cab 4WD, SLE pkg. (power most everything and the 5.3 litre V8) GMC Sierra for about $22,000. That's what, the front clip and a rim off that Mercedes?

:eek :laughing :nanana .

Ya, but unfortunately for your $22.5k what you end up with is an 03 leftover Ex cab 4WD, SLE pkg. (power most everything and the 5.3 litre V8) GMC Sierra.
