so after crawling around the 2019 SL … there are a few things I like to comment on.
Positive:
- flip up seats in the back - cool
- access to water strainer/transmission - thank you - the 2018 hatch is too small - now you can get to pumps to replace impeller without taking the floor out first
- positioning front ballast pumps for better access - thank you
- additional notch in the racks for the bungee (for those who still have them)
- battery switch in the walk thru
Negative:
- battery switch cover - seriously? Ankle buster, banged up toes … I know that the cover matches the rest but sorry sticking it out right there???
- seat adjustment on the touch screen for moving back and forward? Maybe there is a reason that most car manufacturers are exactly NOT doing that? Don't know if the mechanical solution was prone to defects but I know that I move the seat back and forth quite often and having to do so via touch screen will be a PIA
- Overall touch screens - cockpit … coming from a Malibu prior to my SL I had one large screen and a smaller one to the side so I should be used to it but I'm not so convinced about the lower one - personally I think that the lower screen has too many different tabs (about a 3rd of the screen is used for the tabs to switch between the different functions …
