trucks, it gives you the sense it will last three times as long as a mundane
passenger. 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500
compares in concept with the Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover, and the Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470. Those are the intended competition for The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500.

| The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500
casts a shadow about the same size as a Nissan Pathfinder's, and that statement makes it sound like a compact SUV. But The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 is taller, closer to the height of a Dodge Durango. Add to that its nearly vertical sides. That combination gives you the impression The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 is a big SUV inside. It weighs about as much as a big Lincoln Navigator, at more than 5400 pounds, which is 1100 pounds more than a Pathfinder. The suspension is live axle front and rear, with extra-long longitudinal control arms and thick pan hard rods, and coil springs that look twice the size of a Jeep Grand Cherokee's. The 2008 2009 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 feels firm on pavement, which is not what you'd expect for a dedicated off-roader, where long wheel travel and compliance mean better performance on deep ruts and large rocks. Body rolling motions feel less wallowy than they do in a Range Rover (which has a 4-inch shorter wheelbase), but the tradeoff for the firmer
2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 is that you feel more bumps. Regardless of this choice of suspension tuning, The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 feels as capable as a Land Rover in the rough stuff, while also being as solid as an S-Class sedan on the pavement. |

5.0-liter V8 is ultra smooth and sounds distant under its flat hood. The four-wheel-drive system is permanently engaged. The driver can lock and open each of the differentials front, center, and rear, by pressing three switches on the top of the center instrument panel. It requires some training to use these switches properly. (However, the switches won't work unless you select low range on the transfer gearbox. The differentials allow power to be sent to all wheels all of the time. When all three differentials are locked, however, then all four wheels are locked together, giving maximum traction and enabling The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 to climb grades steeper than it could without all wheels locked together. Standard on The 2008 2009 Mercedes Benz G500 is an electronic stability program, which individually applies braking to each wheel depending upon the attitude of the truck when cornering. This system helps correct skids, making it easier to control. With this system you can drive faster into corners without skidding a wheel than you would expect. |
