I have owned my ML350 for 11 years and have found it to be the best car I have owned. I have previously owned Land Rovers and BMWs, but none compare to the road manners of this car plus the off-road / snow capability. I remember driving it one evening on a long trip and thinking to myself that this is the finest driving car I have ever owned. I also owned an E 350 and the ML won over it. I have driven it in snowy conditions to have it drive up snowy/icy hills without one slip. I have driven it in heavy mud and have climbed and descended hills off road without any issue what-so-ever. The only shortfall is that it has been a bit too small for our family's needs. Perhaps we should have bought a GL instead for that factor. My car presently has 142,000 miles on it and I just recently took it fully packed on a road trip of over 1,600 miles. It drove like new. I don't want to part with it but it is time to get a car for our son and he will not be caught dead in a W164 series ML. I hate to see it go.

VERY SPACIOUS

This car is very spacious, lots of airbags for safety, 20" wheels. I absolutely love it. Not very good on gas though, and mine drinks premium gasoline not diesel so its very expensive to fill up! Just dont take it on rode trips, good for driving around town and day to day commute.

Comparing with Acura MDX

Have had ML350 for 1-1/2 weeks now. Very impressive, sylish, drives very well. Mercedes clearly pays attention to detail. I am replacing an Acura MDX which I liked very much. ML 350 has the pickup necessary for Dallas area freeways. It is very quiet inside. While the toys (voice recognition, touch screen, nav system) are not as sophisticated as the Acura, the comfort and safety features equal or exceed the MDX. The resolution of the rear camera is outstanding. The Acura has a few more storage areas which I miss, but the power liftgate on the Mercedes is a very owner friendly feature I am still getting used to the shifing lever. It is unlike anything I've had before.

10th anniversary edition

This is my 4th ML by Mercedes. This is a real Mercedes-Benz compared to the 3 other MLs I owned. I think it is better in every way. The interior is the biggest upgrade. I like the 10th anniversay features, special leather, badges, exterior headlites, and tail lites.
