2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS

Pure luxury and best ride ever

Love my new car. I think it could drive itself.

Panoramic sunroof may be noisy

Safety, Comfortable, Luxury

Check out all other vehicles interactive displays. This car does not have touch screen or blue tooth apple play(but me son's $30,000 FORD Focus ST does) Not as good as FORD Sync, check into Audi nav system. The new BMW and even my 2012 was more technological advanced in some areas. The cameras only come on in reverse so you have to stop the car, put in reverse and then back into drive to be able to see in front of you and your side clearance. Big mistake, that should have been a button to turn on your cameras. Ride and acceleration are very good. Does not have the pick up like the twin turbo BMW but still really gets on the freeway when needed. Handles the mountain curves very well, road handling is nice. Nav system should be head up display for the money you pay. No excuse not to be. Phone book/recent calls/received calls is difficult to navigate through. BMW 2012 was way ahead. Not sure is Mercedes had their engineering head in the sand or not. The cargo space is great, with third row down, the leg space for passengers in the rear is short. Moon roof good waste of money and will need to be tinted with black out to be able to drive in Arizona heat because the cover is a fabric verses a solid roof like in previous models.

It's nice if you have the money

It's a very refined performance oriented full size SUV, like no other.

For a SUV, this vehicle drives just like a luxury car.

Like the handling of the car wish it was higher off ground like a Escalade and wish the engine was louder.
