you can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all...

I guess I'm nitpicking on the ML by saying the cup holders are lame and there is no climate control in a 50K dollar vehicle... Because I really do think it's the best compromise of onroad ride and offroad capability.

Fact is though, MB has better cup holders in the Cclass and climate control too. So I've just chalked it up to that spartan German(Alabamaian?) design mindset that thinks it's a truck and trucks don't need such things... Oh well!

Porsche, where'd you get your info on the climate control. I waited until the 2001 features were known before buying my 2000 with the rebate simply because the 2001 didn't have climate control!
I would be willing to look at retrofitting mine
