Which beast? That vehicle produces a measely 335 hp and it weighs over 6000 Lbs

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.

awele186:
How's the maintenance, parts and reliability of the gs300 please

Buy a GS300 and rest. Use the remaining 500k do something.

HeavenlyBang:


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.

The W163 ML was a proper body on frame. Unlike the W164. Even the useless RX lexus ls unibody

I've warned severally to stay off my posts when you see them , I have nothing to explain to you, since you have chosen to remain arrogant and so full of yourself.
I can choose to call the Mclass GL or GLE it's just former name and present name and.....it's none of your business how I choose to call it.

AmuDimpka:


I wonder why you should be responding to some known dude , he was messed at ikenma351 thread .. where he called Puegeot French bucket, he repeated that funny attitude again at Jaguar where he called British cars unreliable , folks like phaks007 , nobody and others where on him! Nonhuman was the creator of that thread!

I have personally learnt to ignore and never take that guy serious... They laugh at him everywhere! Ask erico2k2

This is a man that called British cars unreliable piece of junk, French cars as French bucket and German cars as Rust bucket .... So you have the energy responding to him

He forgot that Benz started the Body on frame SUV with ML and then GL is a unibody though ... Abeg na you get time !

Me I take super car blondie more serious

HeavenlyBang:



That's what they say when they know they've chatted absolute shite. I'll quote you all I want, mister. I don't recall you ever buying Nairaland.

He say former name and present name.
The ML was renamed to the GLE.
The GL was renamed to the GLS.

You're way off key, since GLE and GL are not the same car at all.

Again, stop spouting nonsense. This is papa giving you wisdom, for free.

Mr ITK do you know that there's nothing like ML
When you don't understand something you ask questions.... that's how you grow in life.
Your oversabi will not take you far in life.

So many mad people on this thread.

You see, if British cars are unreliable it means Roll Royce, Bentley, Aston Martins are unreliable from his position....

I just tire for Nairaland

But ML was later renamed to GL... That is a fact ! As of unreliability of British cars! That is a big lie

kingreign:


Now this right here is all shades of wrong. You erred and were corrected only for you to go caustic. This says a lot about you.

Well to each, his own.

I hope u will also say this when it involves any of your associates here?
You see anyone can type insult,curse or make mockery of people, just that most of us choose to live our age.

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.

I will educate you if you promise to always make your points on this thread without using abusive language.

Eddee:


He doesn't care about anything that doesn't affect the wheels turning when he wants them. Any other noise, squeak, clunk, is on its own.



Here we go again! Bro any car can be driven for a considerable distance with a stuck parking brake and you know this. I agree the Benz has plenty cool gizmos that make it fun to do so, a couple beeps here and there - limp mode in order not to exceed 45 mph.

HeavenlyBang:


I never quite abuse anyone. I'm just condescending, it's an acquired taste.

Educate me, sir.

shortgun:

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.
