Hi all,

I'm planning to go on a road trip across the US and back, within a 3-week period in May 2014.

Details of the trip are here:

Given the long distance of the trip, do you personally think it would be a good decision to take my 2007 SLK350 on this road trip? I bought it brand new in late 2006, and it has around 55k miles on it, as of late 2013 (that's 7 years).

I haven't had any major issues with the car that couldn't be fixed, and it has had all its recommended services.

Thanks in advance!

Shahed C

I haven't had mine long enough, but I'm probably a bit older, I'd think I'd pass on trips longer than 500 miles, I'd opt for my Chrysler 300S. Unless it going through a lot of of curvy roads, then it's the 350!!
