Whats your favorite Mercedes-Benz SUV/Crossover?

Please give reasons?

G- i love it..its just so old school and hot..give me a G55

ML- had a hard time to choose between this and the G.. so a solid second place..just cause the G is such an icon..
GL-- lovely car.. but to large for me..
R-- Vans isnt my deal.. but as far as vans go..it rocks..

My choice: Mercedes-Benz GL

Reason: The size and ability of this vehicle. I also love it's looks from the grill to the tail lights. Interior is very clean cut as well

4th - R: Still don't like the exterior design of the R, nor the concept of it (idea). Looks like a big wagon and an ugly one at that (IMO anyways)

3th - G: The G-Class will be the second which I strike from my list. While I think the exterior design is still pretty funky, to be frank, I find it quite poser.

2nd and 1st

So then, that leaves the GL and the ML. Honestly, I think the GL might be a couple of sizes too big for my needs, but I still have an affection for it. I'm tempted, but the size.. So then, the ML is my choice.

Preferably a ML320 CDI (my uncle has one, it's kick ass!)

ML for me. After my recent runins with the ML63 AMG that lives in my neighborhood, I can't imagine a nicer, more capable SUV. It's very nice looking as well.

Of course, intended use would come into play. I'm guessing that most SUV owner's aren't doing much off-roading anyway. So, give me the ML AMG variant. I'll get a set of winter wheels and tires and have one of the fastest, nicest SUVs on earth...

ooo! ooo! the G! the G!

I've seen it and admired its uniqueness forever

One thing for sure .. it can't be confused!

That is one masculine, Big Boy benz!

To be honest I'm not that fond of any of these cars except the G-wagon. If I wanted a big luxury car with a huge boot I would by no other car than the Range Rover(non sport)

zetableh · 04-03-2007, 09:48 PM

I'm actually a really big fan of the ML... I think that stems back from when the ML was used in The Lost World. But I like the way it's a nice cross between a truck and luxury.

Love the G... the rest are blah.
