got about 120k miles on my 2000 ml320 and it is fricking awesome. ive owned it since 100k and ive had to replace steering rack, power steering resevoir, rear brake lines, trans pan leak, front ball joints, etc. Its a total money pit when it comes to repairs, but she has never left me stranded. This truck is by far the best thing ive driven in the snow and ive driven quite a few 4x4 trucks and suvs. i live in the U.P. of michigan where we can get 2 feet of snow in one snowfall and this thing absolutely plows through feet of snow. I dont even have to shovel the driveway to get out of a foot of snow, just romp right out of it. grand it, i do have general grabber at2 tires on the truck which help a lot, but even when i had worn all season it was still a beast. I highly suggest this truck for the winter, I drive the speed limit or higher when conditions are absolutely horrendous while everyone else is going 10-15 under (I dont suggest doing this though its still very unsafe for many reasons).

Vehicle is driven daily commute and hauls my bass boat. Delievered quality was good. Minimal maintenance has been needed. Except in snow, >9 in., vehicle goes with minimal fuss. It tries its best to keep you from doing stupid things. Driving position is generally good and seats supportive. However on long drives >6 hrs. could use more thigh support. length. More than adequate power to tow my 21' bassboat (~4200 Lbs. Combat Loaded). Heater/AC is acceptable but noisy at high fan speeds. Cheap interior plastics are a put down. Off Road activity has been acceptable but not rubicon capable. The lack of a full size spare tire is not good.

I bough mine in Sept 2000. I stayed away until late 2000 model year after hearing quality issues on 1998 and 1999 models. I wouldn't touch these first 2 year model! For 2000, MBZ revised the interior and presume all the issues found on 1st 2 years. Hey, I had NO PROBLEM with mine and can't see why there are so many who whine about their car. We took it in for 1 yr service and Bellevue MBZ dealer also replaced the sunroof motor. I guess there may have been a "silent" recall. What can I say? Just love this SUV!

Wow, I should have read these reviews before purchasing this car. Started problems after 2 years (when I brought it to Canada and it got daytime running lights). Last 3 months in the shop 5 times, for weeks on end (there now for new engine mounts (2 weeks & counting). Replaced: catalictic converter, engine discs, mass air flow sensor, rate sensor, ignition coil, alternator, etc. Battery went dead, towed in. Embarrassing! UNSAFE, I bought it for the safety & reliability! Has put me & my family in dangerous situations when it stalls!
Terrible build quality

This car has been in the shop 21 times in two years, mostly for annoying little problems, sometimes seriuos problems. This is a Mercedes, it should be top quality. There are also some very goofy interior design flaws - why is the volume control on the passenger side? No sterring wheel audio controls and no door open light. It is fun to drive, and perfoms/ handles well. but way too much time in the shop. Simply not worth it. Also, MB USA simply doesn't care.
