Bingo.
That was the exact brand I was thinking of when I made the connection.
But before I hear "it's a Mercedes, not a Ford"... keep in mind that the previous year-model ML-series had a flat grey grill for the lowest model... and the "nice" versions had the chrome trim.
Just an observation. My opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it, LOL...
