My 2010 gl-450 is better than yours!
I thoroughly enjoy my vehicle. The interior is soft and plush. It is very comfortable, especially when you take long drives. Mine came with t.V's mounted in the headrests so the passengers can enjoy movies. This vehicle has great horsepower, and I know that I have surprised a few folks when they've actually had the audacity to challenge me!

It is a very safe car to drive. It is not very energy efficient though.
It rides very comfortably. It drives well in poor weather like snow, or rain. It is very room and has large interior space. The only drawback is poor mpg.

It is comfortable and safe to drive. Great family car.
Holds passengers and gear like a SUV but drives like a sedan. Lots of comfort features like seat adjustability, heated seats, dual air conditioning.

The most important thing about my car is that there is room for eight people.
I have no complaints about my vehicle... I love it because it has all the comfort and luxury that I require..

I love that if you need additional room in the car, both second and third row seats fold down.
It can seat 7 people. Has room for storage. Fully loaded and luxurious on the inside. It's fairly easy to work on. Smooth, quiet ride.
