Oh I agree, the body colored trim looks better for sure and thats what I would buy.

I agree that this new Mercedes is butt ugly. I also am not a fan of SUV’s. They are all, for the most part, gas guzzling ugly motorized monstrosities. They block one’s field of vision on the roadways. They often are driven by one person to and from work. In short, they are a waste of resources and interfere with other people’s enjoyment of the roadways. It is the bloody auto manufacturers that sold people a bill of rotten goods by marketing these beasts as being gracious modern people transporters. When in fact, they are loud, noisy, clunky, ugly buckets that smash and swerve there altruistic ways down our roads and into our back bumpers. I say junk the whole lot of the beasties and the devil be damned.

I think you need to rethink your over the top post. All Suv's are not monstrosities. I think you are referring to the Escalade and Suburban types. Most mid size/ compact Suv's are not in your generalization. They get good gas mileage and do not block your view. My NX 350h gets 40mph.

Personally, I find not caring about what other people do, buy, choose to have improved my enjoyment of life tremendously...
