Winter is coming fast. In fact, some places in the country have already had major snowfalls! Whether you have experienced winter weather already this year or if it is still a little warm where you are, it’s not too late to prepare your Mercedes for the cold weather. Here are some tips to help you accomplish that.

Change Your Windshield Wipers
Windshield wipers are a vital component to staying safe in the winter weather. If your wipers are cracked or simply not working well, they may not clean off your windshield properly which can hinder your view. Installing new ones for the winter season may be extra cautious, but at least you will have more confidence in them.

Check Your Lights
With the winter months comes shorter days and earlier nights. As such, the lights on your Mercedes become used more. Give your lights a quick check by turning them on and walking around your vehicle so you can be sure other cars can see you when the sun goes down.

Inspect Your Tires
Proper traction is important during the winter months. If your tires are bald or worn, you might just slip and slide on the snow and wet roads. Instead, change any tires that look worn before the next snowfall.

These are just a few things you can do to help stay safe in winter driving. You can get a complete checkup at your Princeton, NJ Mercedes dealer. When it comes to keeping your family safe, a professional checkup is the least you can do.

Have you been looking forward to the new generation of the Mercedes SL-Class? If so, your wait is over. The new 2010 Mercedes SL-Class is creating a buzz at your local Benz dealers. Here are a few of the things people are talking about.

• The SL550 model has a smooth and quick acceleration. When Mercedes-Benz said this particular model can go from zero to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds, they were right. According to the reviewers, the transmission allows for smooth transitions between gears at any speed.
• The SL-Class gets decent gas mileage at an average of more than 18 miles per gallon.
• The 19-inch tires provide for a good ride in the 2010 SL-Class.
• When accelerating, the engine “makes a sporty but refined growl,” according to the reviewer. Other noises are filtered so they do not drown out your enjoyment of the ride.
• The cabin of the 2010 Mercedes SL-Class is sportier than the CL and the S-Class rides.
• The new SL-Class has plenty of room along with ventilated seats for extra comfort.
• Safety features include antilock brakes, a state-of-the-art antiskid system, traction control and much more.

These are just a few of the features and amenities you will appreciate about the 2010 Mercedes SL-Class. Visit your New Jersey area Mercedes dealer to check one out today!

This is the perfect time to take a short road trip to see some of the beautiful color changes on the trees. Here are a few breathtaking scenic routes that you can take this weekend for fun and quality time.

• Massachusetts – Route 6A around Cape Cod
With thousands of trees along the ocean line and the beautiful homes along the way, Route 6A through Cape Cod is definitely a must-see this season. Stop over at one of the nice bed and breakfast facilities and make an entire weekend out of it. You won’t be disappointed.
• Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire
Take a drive in your Mercedes-Benz vehicles around this lake at this time of year and you will want to take hundreds of pictures. In addition to the colorful trees, there are some charming villages and communities that are inviting and reminiscent to a much simpler time. Take Route 3 to Route 25 and Routes 117 and 109 to see some of the most interesting parts of the drive.
• Ocean Drive, Rhode Island
See some of the most prestigious mansions in the region along Bellevue Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island. Ocean Drive also has impressive views of the majestic Atlantic Ocean and you can have a good old-fashioned picnic at Fort Adams State Park.
