There aren't many SUV's out there these days that even look like SUV's - more like wedges with wheels. The ones with decent styling, like the GMCs or Jeeps have their own set of problems. I really was trying to avoid a "status" symbol, but at the end of the day, the Benz had it all: styling, comfort, reliability, safety, utility, and quality. It has excellent acceleration and a luxurious, quiet ride. Love the sound system and the parking cameras. The outside dimensions are perfect for a mid-size SUV with an excellent turning radius, along with plenty of cargo space for my needs. I'm not a fan of the steering shift selector and you better remember to press "park" (or it stays in neutral and will roll), but you get used to it. It takes awhile to learn all the features and they are not particularly intuitive. Fuel economy is not great (I average 18mpg), but like the large gas tank that comes with it. Routine maintenance is expensive, but so far no problems. In summary, I am very happy with my purchase and still look forward to driving it even if it is a "status symbol" (and that's not all bad either!)

Acceleration feel like this car is making a sound to overcome inertia or friction. My Honda accelerated better than this. We want touch screen else keep on using goggle maps on my phone.
