foolbuster:Most of you will just start typing to make someone laugh on this thread. ![]() The 2010 Mercedes GLE 450 is a Beast. It a certified True OFF ROAD Mercedes Benz SUV. Let's do a little comparison since that's what you guys have turned this thread to. Let's compare The GLE 450 that has a V8, 4.7l engine With an infiti Suv with a larger engine of the same year. Let's pick Qx56( V8,5.6l) ![]() The GLE 450 makes 335hp@6000 rpm vs Qx56 makes 320hp@5200 The GLE450 Torgue 339@2700rpm vs Qx56 Torgue 393@ 3400rpm. The GLE has a 7 speed transmission vs Qx56 5 speed transmission GLE450 is a 4matic(AWD) Qx56 is RWD From the above which vehicle do you think should be faster , more powerful and qualifies to be called a beast among its peers ![]() Let me not even talk about reliability of the two. 5 Likes |

shortgun: If you actually knew what the hell you were saying, you would, for one, know that there was no GLE in 2010. There was an ML. The car they're talking about is the GL450. You'd also know that the QX56 could come in either RWD or AWD. You'd then also know that torque is a lot more important than horsepower, especially in a vehicle of that weight. That's why big trucks come with diesels. If you knew what you were saying, you'd know that the QX56 was a proper body-on-frame vehicle, and was a brother to proper off-roaders like the Nissan Titan, Nissan Armada, Nissan Frontier, and Nissan Xterra. Cars that can lay claim to conquering the backroads of the Middle East. The Mercedes GL, on the other, was a unibody vehicle based on the ML. Attempting to pass it off as the superior off-road vehicle is completely laughable. Feel free to educate yourself on the differences between body-on-frame and unibody construction. You just don't know what the hell you're saying, though, so I guess you can almost be forgiven. Spec sheet warrior. Anybody can run to Google to parrot numbers, but don't attempt to talk about things you know nothing of. I wonder why I even bother replying you anymore. Never have I seen an individual so confident in their total lack of knowledge, nuance, and in certain situations, simple logical computing abilities. It's the eight wonder of the world, really. 10 Likes |

HeavenlyBang: The W163 ML was a proper body on frame. Unlike the W164. Even the useless RX lexus ls unibody |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 6:40am On Jun 11, 2020 |
Conductor261: I was obviously referring to the W164, seeing as the GL didn't exist alongside the W163. And yes, the RX is unibody. Lexus has never marketed it as an off-road SUV. That's what the GX is for. |

shortgun: Nah, it's not oversabi. It's the willingness to learn constantly, daily. To engage in discourse and learn as much as I can. And to educate ignoramuses. You see, the problem with ignoramuses isn't that they're ignorant; it's that they have a penchant for spreading false information and corrupting others. That must be stopped. I'm not talking with you to correct you. You're already too far gone. I do this to prevent people that don't know any better from picking up the silly bits of misinformation you and that other ignoramus like to spread. As always, if i make a claim you think is wrong. Feel free to provide evidence showing why it's wrong, and maybe I'll agree with you if your evidence is solid. That is, after all, why we're educated people. Unless you're not, but I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt. You just made a claim, for example. "Do you know that there's nothing like ML?" No, I don't, sir. Here's where you educate me, providing factual data. I'm counting on you. 1 Like |

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 8:50am On Jun 11, 2020 |
AmuDimpka: That is NOT a fact. The M Class was renamed to the GL class. The ML was just the (one and only) model in the M Class. Essentially, Mercedes had an ML (W163 and W164, from 1998 ), and then introduced a GL in 2007 to compete against the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator. In 2015, they decided to unify their SUV models to prevent confusion. So they scraped the M Class, and renamed it to the GL class. GL is now Mercedes new SUV class. The GLK became the GLC. Entry level. The ML became the GLE. Mid-level. The old GL became the GLS. Flagship level. You can see it carries over the sedan pattern of C-E-S. The A Class SUV is now the GLA. The B Class SUV is now the GLB. Both fwd based like the sedans. These are facts. Your posted screenshot says as much. Feel free to prove me wrong. 4 Likes |

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 8:54am On Jun 11, 2020 |
Like I said, no one daily-drives a Rolls-Royce Royce or Bentley, or Aston. They're held to different reliability standards, for obvious reasons. Go online and see horror stories from McLaren owners. British 21st century engineering has and will continue to be a flaming pile of nonsense, reliability wise. Good looking? Yes. Luxurious? Yes. Reliable? No. I've showed you a study of British car owners saying their own cars are unreliable, but you, a random guy from somewhere in South Eastern Nigeria, thinks they're wrong. I'm not sure what to think. ![]() 4 Likes |

HeavenlyBang:It's wrong to try to make mockery of my post when you did exactly the same thing. The SUV you are referring to is called "M class" and not "ML class" ML class doesn't exist but people refer to the M class as ML and we have all been fine. Ordinarily, I wouldn't bring this up cos it doesn't serve any purpose. |
