So I’m dreaming of owning a GWagon. I’m torn between the G550 and the G63. Honestly I could just tune a 550 to get the sports performance of a 63 right?
I own a G-wagen. And I live in Wyoming. Yes, it’s a barely civilized military vehicle with a great interior that consumes gasoline like a college student drinking beer at a fraternity party. It also never gets stuck in a Wyoming winter storm. Or anywhere else. The best SUV I’ve ever owned.
Hey man, I’ve watched a lot of car reviewers; and your delivery and background on the vehicle makes for an extremely comprehensive experience. Cheers to you brotha keep it up 👍
Very good, run down. However, I noticed that you neglected to compare it to the Jeep Grand Wagoneer Series III Which I feel even though it may not have the Mercedes name. But it wins the contest by Miles and Horsepower and Capability and Ride quality ... Noise level... I could just keep going... but I said enough. But all in all a nice review. Good job, but next time, include a comparison with the most awesome! A Jeep!
Thanks for the latest info. By chance, do you know if the 550 you drove had a 360 camera? I believe the front camera is covered up bc of the brush guard in the way. Coming from a GLE with a 360 and front facing camera it is hard not to have moving forward. We were told when building a 2023 that it is only an option on the G550. I do know the G63 does have both cameras but is much more money. TIA
Unfortunately it doesn't have the 360 camera. It only has a rearview camera with proximity sensors around the car for the side and front. You're correct the front bar blocks the camera which prevents the view of the front camera. You can only get it on the G63. It's pretty disappointing because like you I had a GLE prior to this car which had much nicer tech on the interior. Other things you don't have which you had on the GLE are the new MBUX interior system and a touchscreen display. Everything is controlled by the touchpad on the center console which is harder to navigate than a simple touchscreen. It also doesn't have the "Hey Mercedes" call sign to voice active commands.
No 360. Rear view sensors do not take into consideration the spare. Backing up has a slight learning curve if you are used to the other MB Suvs and Sedans.
Bro I just discovered your channel, and love the videos. Binge watching all of them right now. I really enjoy your pro’s and cons and honesty. Thank you for a great channel & videos! Any chance you can review the Audi RSQ3 sportback??
@@sakapole ..I’ve had four Range Rovers. Had a small problem with the first and a small problem with my current one. Not a big deal. I feel badly for people who have had bad experiences.
I really like the new amg grills, but I really would prefer a g550 because I love the 4x4 heritage and the wheels are way too big and suspension too stiff for what I’d want it for
I own a 2016 G550 Gwagon and just to let the public know, both pinion seals leaked fluids at 20,000 miles and being that the warranty expired, I had to pay $2200.00 for the repair. Buyer beware, as they are no longer the long life a buyer expects.
Can't get a front camera with the G550. What a joke. Maybe you can beg for a special order, but as you can see the brush guard blocks where the camera should be. Have to go for the G63 to get a front camera. What an embarrassment.
Special thanks to our Patrons for their support of the channel! What's more iconic than a G Wagen?
very ugly
Range rover obviously more iconic and the king of luxury suvs.but the g class is a excellent legendary vehicle .
@@dkennedy7502 go to a doctor
Impressive amount of info packed into 6 minutes. Well done.
Thanks for not dragging it out…… str8 up w the differences and options. ✌🏻
Breeennnttt 🙏
Excellent work
Very well made video. I love my 2023. This sums up why I chose the non-amg. I have a bunch of MBs. This G550 was meant to be an off-road vehicle.

I just bought a '23 identical to this one with under 4k miles. Waiting on it to be delivered. Can't wait!

Thanks for the love! I don’t think the RSQ3 is coming to the states, otherwise I would be happy to. Anything else you wanna see?
Love it might get rid of my GLE and get the G550
Sounds impressive!
I’d like to see you do a review of the defender 110.
will see what i can do!
@@dwnshft ..Thanks !!
British rubish. Nice desing but very Bad electronic.

Great video Bro. For me the l 6 turbodiesel G400d with 330 hp and 700 Nm of torque. 0-62 in 6.4 sec. and 210 kms/h. Enough.
Greetings from Spain.
salud! thanks for the view and comment

the g550 is still epic!
Nice race car!😊

People who own or want G-wagons be like, "does it look good?"🤔 I guess 🤷♂️=🐑
