PRO: Incredible old-school build quality, like Bentley or Rolls. Hand assembled in Austria. Very solid, capable and strong. Feels safe and secure. Excellent engine and transmission. Great visibility. Smooth ride on 19 or 20" wheels and optional adaptive suspension. CON: compromised interior space utilization, fuel efficiency, large turning radius, wind noise above 70 mph. Many recalls/warranty repairs. VERDICT: Unique.

I owned a 2022 G550 for all of about 3 months.... The things that were quirky and odd soon became a major annoyance. The side pipes sounded great, but some days I just didn't want to be hammered by exhaust noises. The entry/exit was fun at the start, but overall awkwardness of it became an issue. My Labrador couldn't even get in & out on his own and had to be lifted to access the rear seat. The interior motion sensor has to be turned off (through the dated info system) every-time you exit the vehicle if you leave pets inside. The ridiculously intrusive lane change has to be turned off every time you start the vehicle.... its downright startling if you forget to turn it off! Also, the start/stop has to be turned off every time you enter the vehicle because its so abrupt, you will think you just got rear ended at a stoplight. There is zero storage inside this vehicle (my old 4runner had more room). After I used the tilt function on the sunroof, I developed a wind whistle above 75 mph. Dealer said "operating at manufacture specifications at this time". There were also some odd electrical gremlins that were beginning... a reoccurring headlight low beam out warning, radio would come on w/o warning, software glitches in entertainment system, etc. However, the one that made me the most nervous was an engine hiccup & slight stall when immediately taking off from a start in Drive first thing in the morning on a few occasions. First I thought bad gas, but it occurred a few times over a month. And in a month btw, I went through almost a grand worth of premium gas. I averaged 13mph just like Edmunds did and I am not Ricky Racer! THE GOOD: Off road this thing is crazy capable. I have owned Jeeps with lockers and this ran circle around them.. nobody in this world needs three lockers! This is kind of a dumb-ass vehicle that really is not good at anything but looking cool. Fortunately I bought it well and got what I paid for it.. MSRP. Don't buy into the hype of these things, you are better off with a Jeep Wrangler 4-door V8 or something else. I traded my '22 G550 in on a new '23 Yukon and was handed $86K back... I would say the Mercedes was a bullet narrowly avoided.

Love the power and handling of my G. This vehicle is more of a niche market SUV. Not for all but don’t hate cause you don’t have one. It’s roomy and enough space for what it is. It’s a brick and I love that I grew up in 80’s when most cars were boxy and had hard lines. Best Luxury SUV I’ve ever owned and I have other brands nothing like the uniqueness of this vehicle.
