2014 GL-450 62,000 miles and Blown Motor
It looks like my expectation for Mercedes quality and first in Class engineering was misguided. My babied 2014 GL-450 with 62,000 miles blows out the #1 piston. The lack of empathy was evident when the quote was given "$40,000 for the motor, $10,000 for the install, what would you like to do". When I said I would not and could not afford to pay for that he gave me 2 days to "get my car out of here". WOW!!! I'm pretty speechless. Now I own a beautiful 6,000 pound paperweight with a Mercedes emblem on the grill. Looks like need to buy a bigger desk.
You will think this is SUV is awesome if you haven't driven a lexus ever...
I own 2014 GL550 for more than a year now. At best, this is an OK SUV. This is my second and last GL. MB does not have the reliability, built quality or attention to detail to warrant the price tag and more than $10k premium over other SUVs. GL is annoyingly unreliable. Keyfob stops working when it gets cold. You can get stranded outside your car in a cold night if your keyfob happens to get cold for whatever reason. Disctronic plus and Presafe features stop working in the middle of driving when it's rainy or snowy outside, when you need them most. I reported to MB customer service and dealership to no await. Other owners seem to have similar annoying problems they get used to. Why pay 100k?

First time Mercedes Buyer
This was my first Mercedes Benz product I’ve ever purchased. I bought it in December 2013 and have been pleased with it all through my ownership experience. I sold it last year and purchased a neW 2022 Mercedes GLS. It rode so comfortably on all roads even gravel, in fact you could barely hear the gravel noise inside the cabin. I always serviced my GL at Mercedes Benz of Buckhead which is also where we bought it. They go above and beyond to take care of their customers. Overall I think it was well worth the price tag as I’ve had 0 issues of any kind and it had 155,000 miles when I sold it. Very reliable ride in my ownership experience! Maintenance costs aren’t that bad either. Very comparable to our Lexus’ we’ve had over the years. This was my first and certainly not my last!

Dreams do come True *
This is an amazing machine the pick up and go and the style is the best I've seen. I wish the gas milage was better, but other than that is my only complaint and I wanted Safety, comfort and Style, over a few extra bucks in the tank. I drive all day, and I really need everything comfortable and stylish so i'm happy on the road moving out and about in style. Lane assist, and blind spot assist , dis tronic, amazing features, not to mention M brace -a must have, oh, and a Bang and Olsen sound system to die for. Designo interior AMAZING. Its truly a Dream come true and really there is soooo much more I did'nt even get to touch on. Test drive it, far better than the Lexus SUV. Tires every two years- low profile tires- still love it-
