I am waiting for you to buy the perfect car that you want to drive to 100k plus miles and not let it go... lol
Yeah not gonna happen lol. I just like new cars.

So yes to non air struts, but the air suspension system is not considered a wear item, so air struts and other components of the air suspension are covered.

Where did you see that? I just don't like when they say "may" if you know what I mean
I'm starting to see your side of it more, though we still won't buy new or year-old cars like this. I had the Denali today for the first time in a lonnnnnng time for several hours. Vibrating seats for alerts like if you get close to something, about 11 HD 1080p cameras including a great 360 among other modes, hands free lift gate, it steers you very subtly if you run close to out of the lane, Apple Play (yes, it is very nice... no infotainment), climate concierge just like Lexus (GM does it now too), amazing pano sunroof. One thing I absolutely HATE is the Heads-up display. I have no idea how one single human being could like that. It is distracting and makes me a little dizzy.
The way this thing moves is startling. Especially how willing it is the second you get into another gear, like 1-2 or 2-3…. I know you guys have faster vehicles etc. but 6.2L of punch with zero lag is verrrrry satisyfing.

It's really cool in theory. There are several modes including off-road angles (I would use it off-roading if I took this off road but that'll never happen lol).. but even when it's just the speed only that is still too much.
Remote start is also nice, every time I walk up to it I do it just to hear the V8 exhaust rumble (and it does rumble....louder than I thought).

I like HUD. After using it in another Lexus I thought it was great. What I really liked was that the Toyota/Lexus stock nav works in the centre screen for most of the trip, but as you get closer to you destination where turns and ramps are required, the direction moves to the centre cluster speedometer and then the final touch moves to the HUD. I really like that. My 4Runner doesn’t have HUD but it does move the directional arrows to the centre cluster when I get close to my destination. Apple Car Play just stays in the centre screen.

Friend, . If this were mine, I’d drive this forever.
I saw this today, I did a double take. Just sensational presence.

Finally sat in the new S580 today. No doubt it is very nice. BUT, I think the design of the screens is step back for MB. I think your S-class has a better dash design.
also thought the giant curve on the window frame was a bit strange.
