So I had an epiphany early this am while driving on car-less Sunday morning roads, enjoying many sights I don't normally see(duck swimming alone in a pond, people being tugged by their dogs, etc) when I'm driving my Allroad and maintaining a faster speed...my frustration with my 300GD isn't so much that the power-weight ratio is low(although I would like more power so that it's capable of whatever I throw at it terrain-wise) and that the rig is slow, it's that I assume that(sympathize with) drivers behind me are frustrated with me being a hazard in the roadway since I can't keep up with the speeds of modern traffic from a standstill or up hills. So, if I change my perception towards others behind me (perhaps they're not ALL frustrated? ), then I can just sit back, relax, let the G go at it's pace, and enjoy the gorgeous view. :smiley_drive:
You just saved yourself $30,000. Nicely done my friend.
I feel a little better. Just wanted to make sure you weren't referring to resale.
Fuel economy, future expenses, upgrades, maintenance.....the economics (cost) of owning a vehicle and what you get out of it, I get that part.
Jeremy's signature quote sums it up.
Jeremy dude, I think the answer is for you to have both. Mostly because you're a baller though. :ylsmoke:
resale is just the backside of the up front cost, except the next guy in line hopefully has a used up beater...
Not a beater from Steve or I.
me either. this stupid thing is going to be new again, by the time i sell it.
There isn't anything in the way of '91-01 W463's for sale....looks like I may be headed towards an '02-03 G500 afterall.
i wouldnt feel so bad about that. that 2000 g500 was 32g? please. its nice, but youre starting it enter 04 territory with that. myself, i may prefer switches to screens, and shifters to buttons, but an '00 isnt exactly electronic free, it doesnt have factory shop help in the US... its OLDER, and an '04 DOES have allot of advancements.
id happily sacrifice 50k miles on the odo, for all the improvements, age and MBUSA service availability.
with more and more MBUSA's coming on the market and driving down the 'old' rigs value, did you ever think of ditching yours now for the $$$ and just riding it out until you locate a winner?
I'm willing to pay for a clean rig.
Thanks for thinking about this one. Is it the green '91 300GD?

I got a quick return call from Export Auto Sales today regarding the 300GD they still have for sale. The asking price was $39,500 US or best offer.
