Vehicle has been terrific. Lots of room up to 8 passengers plus good room for luggage. Handles terrifically both local and highway driving. Good gas Milton highways but obviously not as good in city driving. Service only required annually ( based on 12-15k miles annually).

I will continue buying this car in the future so I love it that much.
I have been driving this model for last 10 years and the car drives like sedan very smooth ride and love the room that I have inside. I have a 7 passenger capability so love the spacious room that we have in the car. I would not trade this car for another and I will continue to buy this Mercedes model for the coming year as well.

It maintains a trade-in value greater than any other.
I like the adjustable seats. The technology is great with the satellite radio, Bluetooth phone capability. The navigation system is an asset.

Gl450 awesome car for a mom with teenagers!
It has a lot of storage room in the back. The third row collapses with a single touch button. The car is very comfortable and roomy and drives great!! I had to install CarPlay because the year was too old to have it, but other than that, perfect! People ask me about it all the time.

I absolutely love my GL550. It has three row seats which allows for 7 passengers. I have the back DVD setup as well as a great sound system. The front and passenger seat have massage system in the seats as well as AC & Heated seats. The car is luxury and rides smooth.

Comfortable, reliable, and efficient with all of the designs.
It is very comfortable and easy to drive anywhere. I like it because of the space it has and the mileage is really good. The only bad thing I would say is that the gas pedal has a slight delay.

The gl450 Colonel sanders.
The vehicle is really smooth and nice to drive in and it also has really good seat warmers and also you can connect music from your phone to play it on the car. It has 7 seats enough for a family and your friends as well. The reason I like this car is because it looks really cool and sick and is more of a bulky car.

Best is the Benz. We are considering trading in our rdx for a second Mercedes!
Ride is smooth. Very reliable and comfortable. Feels safe and handles well. Do not like that it uses the expense gas. Could get better gas mileage. Good visibility and. Ice options. Good sound system but hard to find stations with the round controller if you do not know the number.

I have a gle-360 4matic. It is overpriced for what you get.
The mouse gets too hot in the summer. Cumbersome to scroll on the screen. For it to be 'top of the line' it is a bumpy ride. I don't enjoy the ride or controls. For a new vehicle, it seems outdated in what conveniences it offers. I am not impressed and would not purchase another model.

Smooth ride and does not feel big despite being a large SUV.
Luxury and style! I wanted an SUV that would fit my family that was nice. This met all the requirements. I looked at other brands and the same size SUVs did not have as many upgrades bad features. I would buy this car again if I need another large SUV.

Best feature being family friendly and comfort.
I love the smooth drive and all the luxury feels, features of this car. The reliability is great and has not had any problems with it. Handles long distances well and around town. I do wish the audio visual features were more touch screen and up to date.
