R350

I saw my first R350 today on the freeway. It looks sharp, but seems a bit smaller than I imagined.

RE: R350

yea. I saw one up close the other day, and i think it is pretty cool. It is a luxurious minivan, but at the same time, it's kinda weird. I like it though...

RE: R350

I have yet to see an R-Class on the road. It's been a while since I've been to the dealer, so who knows.

RE: R350

I have only seen 5 or 6 in the NYC metro area. Saw one today, parked around the corner from my home. Thought for a moment that one of the garage attendants had taken mine for a spin[:0]

After nearly 2000 miles, all I can say is that people don't know what they're missing. I am averaging around 23 mpg on my weekly highway jaunts to the country and 19.4 overall on the first 1900+ miles. Not too shabby on breakin.
