Mercedes X-class MEGATHREAD

dude I know the sprinter isn't 100K, the company I work for has a few of them as work trucks. I know a few others that have them as well.
I'm saying every post on this so far has been that its a luxury vehicle, not a utility vehicle. So can't see it being remotely close to cheap.

 

Because you are trusting a random fb post and your other assumptions. First: concept is just that, a concept. It likely wont come with all that schenanigans when actually produced and yes im sure they will eventually do an amg version, but with the exception of the amg gt, there is no amg only car... so there will be lesser versions. And if you make lesser versions and also utility vans it would kinda make business sense... no?

 

So...you want a Ridgeline but you have a bunch of money. The answer? This thing.

Yuppie soccer dads.....FTW.....I guess, right?

 

People are dumb

This thread is proof

 

I sold luxury sprinters retrofitted with handicap accessability. The "base" was nearly 120k. But that was a decked out sprinter with about 25k in mods for access and controls. They arent all utility vans which is why im saying it wouldnt be crazy for them to do a utility and luxury versions of the same vehicle. Ok im signing off because this could go around in curcles all night n i have a glass of scotch getting watered down

 

Yes but even without the AMG versions a lot of those other vehicles like G55, ML series etc are still all luxury and 60k+
Also its not coming to N America, pick ups aren't popular in europe they're more into the cargo van type thing over there. I don't see this taking off as a utility vehicle in europe.

 

High top?

 

Looks like Mercedes had sex with a Chevy Colorado.

 

Yep

 

I assume you'd get the extended wheelbase also?

Would be a sweet work rig. Almost had a long, high top 4x2 out my way but ended up with something completely different. Interior height on the high top was enough for me to almost stand up in.

 

Yep extended

How tall are you ? They have like a 77" headroom

 

6'7".

 

Oh well yeah , they're not freak rated

 

Do they have a propensity to rollover? Do their transmissions suck ?



Seriously though...

I am going to start a new website for this X class "rig"

 

Still are. The Canadian Army uses G wagons. They were the replacement for the POS Iltis.

 

Saw this today and thought the same thing. They say imitation is the highest form of flattery

 

It was co-developed with Nissan and based, in part, on the foreign market Navara (variant of the US Frontier).

It looks pretty cool. It does somewhat resemble a 3rd gen. The X-Class and new Colorado seem to have used the Tacoma's cab features.

 

Tell me of this thing called...."search bar".
