They seem to be ashamed of showing it as it's, no amount of conceptish makeup will save it however.

I am sorry Mercedes, no matter how much you spin it...the car is based on the Nissan Navara

 

[Mr Robert]

It's a Nissan with a star on the hood. I wonder if rebagding kits will be available to Nissan customers?

Well, that said, I don't think this is such a bad thing. The Nissan is a great truck and most will be happy with it. I can't, however, see how Mercedes will be able to demand any kind of premium over the Nissan.

It's a disgrace of epic proportions.

Why sweden though, its not much of a pickup country.

Anyway i hope this sells just the ammount of cars that differs in all year sales between BMW and Mercedes.. so BMW fans can loose their shit, and cry about the pickups and van's..

Just for that reason they should make it.

Are you looking to start a fight or what?

Just when the forum managed to become peaceful again, you try to inflame things up?

Why Sweden? Seems there's a great art gallery near Stockholm for an event like this, and there may also be a surprise MB hinted on FB.

Very true.

Keep it up, without people like you the forum will have 10 new posts by the end of next week.

Taking into account how much a hate trucks, at least that concept will give us a hint at a new style of headlight shape for the MBs. After sticking the same headlight cluster to every model, I am starting to get tired of it.

Maybe this front end is similar to the one in the new GLE.
