what a waste of money...why would anyone buy a Autobahn worthy SUV. I'd rather get something that's more aerodynamic, more stable, and guzzles less gas.

Out of curiosity, why do the ML's depreciate os poorly?

I figured depriciation wouldn't be so bad in a benz, but this is just amazing. Is it due to the poor build quality of the car and the constant TSBs and electrical issues?? Anyone know, Gavrill, whats ur take?

I agree with you...but extent that to ALL suvs...v8 is nice...but i dont think we need suvs that do the quarter mile in 13.5...

Well, it is a GERMAN SUV built in Alabama. That sounds all wrong. The quality of the thing is horrendous. Horrible. Period. That is why it is so low. And it looks like a Van.

"0-60 in 9 seconds" Is that right?

Does anyone else think the ML-series looks like a giant wedge of cheese? Possibly this would be illustrated more nicely if we could see it in yellow.....
