Very nice... thanks for posting. I like how the SLS pops on decel. It sounds much like my car. Some people HATE that, but I love it.

Nice ride, but it sounds like **** IMO and is not the best looker.

TX

I'll take this one even though it has the turning radius of a F350









Honestly for the money though, there are much better options.

Thanks for sharing! Makes me wonder, what if Jay actually did host Top Gear America lol. And am I the only one who thinks that merc looks kinda like an FD from the rear?
