dude, there's no shame in moving on to another model!! MBs are very nice vehicles too!!

I thought alot about the ML350 before deciding on the X5.. the new ML is much nicer than the older version and it offers same features as the 5...

one differentiator that made me lean towards the beemer was the maintenance program.. those costs add up over the years!!

rotors, brake pads, oil changes, etc are all covered!

both have some known issues w/their technology so not much difference there!

good luck to you and the new vehicle!!
