The 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350
Sensible size contains notable utility and ability.
New last year, the compact Mercedes GLK350 is built on the sturdy C-Class sedan platform, yet it has been trimmed down, making it a short and easily maneuverable 178-inch SUV. That's about the same size as a Honda CR-V. The GLK350 is a bit wider and much heavier, due to its powerful driveline and luxury equipment.

Safe “C” Net
The 2010 Mercedes C-Class bests BMW's 3 Series.

This year, the organization raised the bar higher in choosing its Top Safety Picks, and just 27 vehicles made the cut. The 2010 Mercedes C-Class was one of the chosen.

As technology rapidly advances, however, MP3 players are constantly being replaced by more ambitious and innovative models.

The other day I am driving on 270 South towards 670 heading into the city. If you are in the outer lane it is like driving around land mines. As I swerved to the left and to the right I knew I was in trouble. Oh my it was impossible to miss at least some of the potholes. With every bone jarring hit my teeth would clinch with the thought of what was happening to my front end. I knew it was time to get an alignment.

The Tempting World of Discount Paint and Bodywork
The price might be right, but the cost down the road will more than make up for any apparent savings.
There are few things more disheartening than walking up to your vehicle in a parking lot only to realize that someone has put a sizeable ding or dent in its side, or perhaps used your bumpers as feelers during an aborted parking attempt. Even worse is having to deal with the type of damage left behind by someone carelessly rear ending you at a stoplight, especially if their love tap was hard enough to crack bumper covers and displace sheet metal.
