Looks like my dream diesel has arrived next door. I expect that you will start to see the GL's in the south and spread out. Atlanta is relatively close to Tuscoloosa.

My Daily : 96 E-300 Diesel with 195,000 miles
Retired: 92 300D 2.5 T 345K miles and for sale
Retired: 95 E320 157K miles and currently parked with blown engine

Both retired cars are for sale as is my w124 shop inventory

Mine is ordered and will be built in the 1st week of June. Debating /trying to determine if I can make arrangements to pick it up in Tuscaloosa instead of waiting 8wks for it to be shipped by train to the NW.
Anyone got any info on this subject? The dealer in Portland is not terribly forthcoming.

The GL 320 CDIs have been selling like crazy here. Nice ride.

I would advise about a factory pick-up. Call ahead, because all factory deliveries are joined by nice dinners, factory and museum tours, et.al
