    Saw one on the road and loved the looks. Ordered it and had to wait in order to get 2004 model. After ordering, while waiting for delivery, was told by someone that loved luxury cars that I would hate it. He drove it and would never buy one. I am so glad I took delivery. Best vehicle I have ever driven. So solid, comfortable and love the looks - gets lots of attention.

    The car is fun to drive.Reliable in bad weather.Gas mileage is terrible.The second row of seats is not that comfortable for kids in their car seats. Great styling and solid steady handling.Cargo space is OK

  • Cruises over and Ranges past the rest - 2004 Mercedes-Benz G-Class

    I am sure I am one of the very few G Class owners who have really been off road in their vehicle, but I must say the G has very aceptional handling. On road and off. Being 6 feet tall, i fit right inside the somewhat cozy cabin. The seats are great and the driving stance/experience is amazing. Its like driving a tank and thats what i am use to. My last two cars were a Land Cruiser and a Range Rover, but i must say my G is the best car i have ever had ever.

    I purchased my G to serve as my primary vehicle and for off-road use. Its great. Built with great quality and blessed with 292 hp, this baby goes anywhere at anytime. Highly recommended.

  • Wish I had bought the Range Rover - 2004 Mercedes-Benz G-Class
    By -

    Very disappointed. Drive is rough for around town and while it probably does great off road, it is a bit expensive and dressed up for off road use. Fuel economy is poor. The navigation system is poorly done. All in all it is a very expensive novelty. This seems to be born out in the unbelievalby poor resale value. I would and have not recommended it to anyone else.

    A great experience, incredible ride, tons of power and lots of fun.

  • Move over Rover....Benzo is taking over - 2004 Mercedes-Benz G-Class
    By -

    Had a 01 range rover Hse great looks but built like junk. The G500 is rock solid and reliable. Although comparable in price the quality is so much better. I love the look, although most think that it is a big box, thats what I like. If it is so bad, then why does it always end up in the front of every valet lot in town....hmmm. I have put 22 inch wheels on it which has helped with the handling around corners.
