 No the GL is a turd compared to a G.

 I'm confused - is the GL the equivalent of a Gelandewagen?  Sure doesn't 
 look like one...

  available, a bit less dinero too)  She is totally risk averse so I am 
  thinking some sort of extended warranty to go along with a used one, the 
  CPOs have something like that, would have to look into details.  I know 
  you can get something from Carmax too.  Some of these look decent, coming 
  off lease or something. Loan rates are pretty low too so reasonable to 
  finance a purchase. This is just sort of an initial scouting expedition.
 
  Thoughts?  Am I stupid for looking at likely headaches?  Should I take 
  her to the Frod dealer and look at Exploders?  She has a thing about not 
  wanting a jap vehicle, though I think they are all built here now, but a 
  krautkar is OK, which are built here too.
 
  I just found these in Charlotte, seems they have a largish selection.  I 
  could probably look at Atlanta area too, see what they have there.

Daughter dearly loves her ('08?) GL320cdi but her husband (who pays the bills) 
is constantly amazed at the number, frequency, and cost of repairs.
One large expense was finally improved by buying Michelins best grade of tires 
which lasted much longer than any other. 
If you buy a GL be sure there is a mechanic who knows how to fix them, or a 
dealer within a reasonable distance.
