What color 300D? W124? My dad was in town driving the white 87. I have a Grey SDL, a Black SDL and a White 300D (124) I live in Katy too.

Nope, thats W Little York and Eldridge. Trust me, I always look at other MB Diesel drivers, see if they are paying attention, but the SDL is quieter, so I can sneak up on you 617 guys!

Awesome!! No, haven't seen ya! I used to work at the Lowes right there, but now I'm at the Willowbrook location. We should have another smallish meet. It seems there's a good bit o' benzez in the area.

[chasinthesun]

[redassag00]

Yes, we should do another meet. I would suggest a early afternoon meet, since it gets dark early now, or later in the spring?
