I like it. It is a solid vehicle. Feels like a mini tank when driving it.....if that makes sense. lol
The one thing I really do not like about MB is their maintenance cost is high, really high. A Schedule A or B, don’t remember is $300. We don’t put many miles on ours so it’s not that big of a deal but if you are a high mileage driver you’re pretty much screwed.
Our dealer is really good too.
We also have a Jaguar and the maintenance costs on it were really high too. They charged me $140 for an oil change so I took it down the road to a place that charges me $18 with a coupon. lol We only use the dealership for major things.

You won't get the same quality oil at the $18 place. The MB dealer puts in premium quality synthetic oil. Still, I am paying about $250 per year for the scheduled maintenance because I prepaid. That is basically just a glorified oil change and way too expensive. There is also the issue of having to use premium gas. But I do like the ride. Again, would have had to pay almost as much for a V6 AWD Chevy Equinox.
