I got a new car! I’m obsessed with this car

Transcript

I got a new car! Come with me to pick up my new car. Oh my gosh, I cannot believe I'm saying this. As you guys know, I have been car shopping for the past couple of weeks and I've tried out a few cars. I came to test drive the GLE, which I thought I was going to be in love with, didn't really love it. And then I test drove the Afeela, which was another electric car, didn't really love it and it was going to take way too long to get shipped. So I actually went back to Mercedes because you guys kept on commenting about the Mercedes EQS and I fell in love. This is our new baby. She's a Mercedes EQS 580. It does have an AMG package on it so it gives the body a little bit of a sportier feel. She is fully electric and gets about 320 miles on a full charge and as you can see, the tech is where it needs to be. Y'all know I was like I need something real techy. We're so excited because this is definitely a car we want to keep a little bit more long term so it's nice and big and spacious. I'm so obsessed with the interior. I've actually never had a car with lighter interior. I always get like black or I think the best I've done is like a brown. But this white with like the pink ambient lighting, oh my gosh, it's so pretty but literally feels like I'm driving a spaceship. I posted an actual car tour if you guys want to see more of the inside and the specs and the features and stuff. But yeah, this is our new baby.
