Got to love Sarah reviewing off road. Actually just got to love Sarah!

[@manifestSD]

"Accelerate More Steadily During Thrust Articulation" -- solid advice, Mercedes.

[@ThatGuy-pb6wb]

I don't know how you find outfits to coordinate with your review vehicles, but it is appreciated. Your entire attention to angles and aesthetics is amazing. Stay Awesome

[@Delzona]

That 3rd row seating demo was hilarious! 😂

[@monunyabidness5949]

I worked for Mercedes back in the Pleistocene era. They've ALWAYS been very engineering savvy. And the parts that make the car go, stop and turn have always been top notch. I'm not surprised that you were impressed. I daily, and love, my 1991 Mercedes Benz 250TD: Wagon. Diesel. 5 speed.

[@maudessen573]

My only Mercedes is my 1985 300DT. I never drive it but can’t give it up. That Bosch IP!

[@interceptor7905]

Not these days MB turned into pos

[@AllOutNoobHater]

I love how you know a lot about the vehicle before the review, but then when you're taking a closer look, you nerd out like a kid in a candy store. It's so much more authentic than any other "car reviewer" KZbinr.

[@bliers]

Amazing off road review in a Merc monster. Nobody does it better!

[@taterkaze9428]

Not a Mercedes fan, but gotta give props for that hill climb on street tires.

[@niklaswejedal463]

"it's going off road anyway..." - exactly what I wanted to hear! Another top-notch review! Thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!

[@JackBeckman]

Steering wheel heat switch is on the left side of the steering column. I had to look it up in the manual - before that I used "Hey. Mercedes" too! For the seats, there is a switch on top of the second row seats near the headrest that will move them forward electronically. There's also a switch in the arm rests of the third row to open/close the seats (so you aren't at the mercy of someone to open them!). Smallest wheels MB supports are 21"; I bought a set for winter tires and have the 22" for the summers.

[@wbryanj]

Wait. Backing up a hill off road, who even thinks of testing that? Kudos Sarah.

[@zanesutherland406]

Wow this is an impressive car! Both in styling, functionality, driving and off road etc. Obviously it’s a lot of money, but I think you get so much for what you are paying.

[@Primus54]

As always, a thorough and unbiased evaluation of a vehicle. Pretty sure I heard a meow coming from the catalytic converter… Butters? That jacket you had on in the vehicle is fire… pure class befitting a Merc. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

[@downtempo76]

That jacket is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ColonelPickleswitch]

So Mercedes has resumed building vehicles to a standard, not a price point--you can spec a Jeep Grand Wagoneer to cost almost as much as this GLS580. Super review: thorough, on point.

[@msk3905]

Right, I was curious at what a Wagoner costs as I see a lot on the road and couldn’t believe that anyone would spend that kind of money on them when they could buy a MUCH better luxury SUV like this or BMW or Audi? IMO that’s a real kind of stupid there.

[@jonathans2281]

On A/T tires, this would be an off-road beast. Really impressive already with those street tires.

[@weirdshibainu]

Yep. PZero is just about the worst off road tire imaginable and this still pulled it off

[@dimmacommunication]

@@weirdshibainu I had the P zeros it was like Ice skates LOL

[@johnt.848]

I'd love to see Sarah review an AMG G63, that thing looks like it has real off road potential.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Somewhere you learned not only Mechanics (USAF) but also broadcasting speech. This vehicle was really impressive on your offroad segment: I was 'flabbergasted' by the low score you gave it, especially considering how it did with the wrong sort of tires.

[@SarahnTuned]

That would be false, although you do do a lot of speaking in front of large groups of people when you reach the rank of E5.

[@bradhaines3142]

@@SarahnTuned haha. do do.

[@judih.8754]

​@@SarahnTuned So true! Even in the USN.

[@MegaRetr]

Steering wheel heat switch is on the left side of the steering column!

[@user-ib6fu3ux1q]

Great informative review. Considering that there is no low range, the Mercedes AWD system did an outstanding job going up the hill on street tires.

[@jasonblair4057]

That off road test with Pzero tires was a big surprise. I am sure MB was not expecting a reviewer to do that.

[@rimarcadu]

Excellent presentation from German engineers, thanks 🙏

[@davidblalock9945]

Just looking at it, the diff cover makes tons of sense. It has fins to dump heat, a drain plug, and it’s facing the technician. Unusual, definitely. An Improvement, i think so.

[@joshgroff9218]

I'm diggin the new special effects in your videos, Sarah! 👍

[@billschlafer]

Sarah, your car reviews only get better and better. Thanks!

[@WFO.]

Always enjoy your reviews. They’re happy, informative and top notch.

[@lylejames8079]

So glad you are true to yourself and you are who you are. Keep up the great work!

[@kirknewton100]

I just love the expression on your face as you anticipate the break tests... 😂... Brilliant. Another great review.

[@WarriorsPhoto]

I hope you get to review a G wagen. When you do please do a full off road review!

[@CraigConnors]

The hill climbs are insane!

[@MultiMatblack]

great review

[@kevinhill5531]

Always liked 4x4 Mrec's but I doubt I'll ever be able to afford one.. Great review, love that you actually put it up a hill and took it offroad!

[@waynejohn8]

Love you, Sarah, and your reviews are GREAT!!!

[@Ed209sect32]

I really like that coat in the brake test section. It looks cool.

[@rickster4455]

Aluminum does get "white rust" especially with road salt on it. Its gets eaten away faster than steel sometimes.

[@MrMorton]

Really fun video! You must be extraordinarily busy making all these videos and getting work done in your own projects.

[@doncellaordonez2982]

Sweet ride!

[@glennleslie6127]

I love your reviews. They are so very thorough and also fun. You need your own TV show...

[@BleuCollarFndryMTL]

I love your jacket when testing the brakes.

[@davidbaron6647]

TANK , Have a great week Sarah

[@jamsbong]

I particularly enjoy the off road test on your car reviews

[@rickhorsley9383]

The very best reviews!

[@falklan]

What's more impressive about climbing that hill is that it did it at 7,485lbs. It's a beast!

[@jonathanapples]

Cooling for phone wireless charging. Neat!

[@howardjacobs1325]

Great video Sarah love what you are wearing nice Mercedes impressed with it😊

[@waltermartin6176]

Great video

[@bobwinant3237]

thanks best I have ever seen of coveing a car.make more please

[@PeterDavidLauwers]

running boards are aluminum with rubber grip ovals

[@pedrito77]

lol!!! Yoiu went back up in reverse!!! YEAHHH!!! lol loved this!

[@bliers]

Thanks!

[@eshxplorn]

Great review as always, Sarah. Missed opportunity to test/show bounce mode in your off-road testing! Would have been perfect as you are more comfortable off-road and adventurous than most (besides WD ofc).

[@drewk8601]

Sarah, the steering wheel heating switch is on the left side of the steering column behind the wheel. Not ideal, but once you develop some muscle memory on its location, it's easy to deploy. Or just use the voice control as you demonstrated.

[@ArunSudama-ur2cd]

Now I’d like to see a MB GLE and E class, please

[@dracozain1023]

I noticed a while ago the outfits matching with the cars you review, Jeans with this color 👌🔥

[@williamtahau38]

That's a 1st time goin up that hill backwards worked a treat . You're right about fuel consumption if you're gonna pay that much for it you aint gonna worry about the price of gas. over here ( nz) were paying just under $$3 bucks a litre

[@Truth_Seeker_79]

The stop and go feature can be disabled. Highly recommend disabling it.

[@bradfordmcgomery9058]

Love your reviews. ✌️🇺🇸

[@WrenchingOnCars]

Yes, the seat bolster test!!!!

[@RedLeg8612]

Awesome video thanks 😊🎉😮🎉

[@bradyaradgamer1630]

Hi Sarah I love your reviews please do more Mercedes review love them

[@BorellaFamilyAdventures]

You accidentally left the Toyota Sequoia towing graphics in.

[@SarahnTuned]

haha, oh well!

[@johnchai8546]

Support Sarah~❤~❤~❤

[@seans9125]

Great Review! I’d love to see your offroad impressions of the new Lexus GX550!

[@cbuffalino]

Cup holder reaction was amazing. 😅

[@jasonjtg21]

I’m down with the heated and cooled cup holders

[@Peachcreekmedia]

I wish all vehicles were made with this level of quality.

[@ddrennon]

I love it when you sprechen "Billschtein" se gut.

[@mongo64071]

The third row is a lot easier to get to than the way you did it. There is a button on the top of the second row seatback. That makes the seats automatically tumble forward.

[@Mamutsitopro]

This thing is huge!

[@stucook8622]

Thanks Sarah ! 🌻🐧

[@mq6570]

Love your jacket in the car

[@abraham5233]

Cool thanks 🎉

[@lotsatrix]

I love the lab coat and the boots combo!

[@Fluterra]

Steering wheel heat button is on the tilt/telescope adjustment stalk.

[@johnbochicchio2806]

Great review! Now I understand why it’s such an expensive vehicle!

[@48VAC]

HEY DON'T BE BASHING THE 40'S STATION. That is a great station. 🙂 Great video.

[@javiersantiagoromerogarcia3159]

Those seats look comfier than my couch!

[@bsclifton]

Great review! 🙂 I have the previous generation (X166) and it's a very solid car. However, much of the engine maintenance is definitely outside of DIY capabilities. Like you saw, all the plastic tubing under the hood - that will crack and break. Besides the book time, techs and service advisors will often budget replacement of those parts in the repair because it's probably going to break 🙁 For the 2nd row, you got the back down... there is a pull handle (pull UP) behind the seat. That will fold it forward and a motor will move the 2nd row seat forward to make it easier to get in.

[@bsclifton]

BTW - I have a 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300D (W124) in case you ever wanted to review an old MB. I'm just north in Chandler

[@weirdshibainu]

The days of DIY are long over.

[@SarahnTuned]

Totally DIY possible, just gotta get an FSM and read! I talked a friend of mine who is a cardiologist with no mechanical training into replacing valve/timing cover seals on her ML63 AMG and she knocked it outta the park.

[@bsmirnov]

@@SarahnTuned you know, cardio surgeons can do it on a running engine

[@RothBeyondTheGrave]

​@@SarahnTunedgreat outlook & inspiring lack of intimidation. The lack of longevity & logical design architecture is depressing in modern MB compared to their historical stance being the polar opposite, but as you said it's not impossible.

[@linuxknight]

Great review. Vehicle itself beyond my normal price range, but nice to get an idea of the experience from you. As for the radio, who listens to SiriusXM 40's Junction... (raises hand) 👋 And no I'm not 80... I have very eclectic music tastes.

[@midwestslim]

Love the blue Jacket

[@daveyakim]

Just discovered her, enjoyed the review. Her humor definitely gives Matt Watson a run for his money😂.

[@JoshuaKoerner]

I don't know what goes into my upcoming suggestion, so disregard if you wish. It'd be interesting to know the actual distance it takes to stop from whatever speed you're traveling during the brake tests. It could be interesting to compare against other vehicles in the segment as well. Obviously, tires make a huge difference, but if it's what the manufacturer recommends, that's important to know as well.

[@mikehomner4724]

I used to work for MB - GLS is a solid vehicle. Hope you get to test the G Wagon, only MB vehicle made in Austria...

[@SM-yg1ts]

Usually the heated steering wheel switch is on stalk that you use to tilt and telescope, you twist a know on the end of it. ( thats what my cls has)

[@802Garage]

Jeez what a beast. More of this thing is made in the USA than a lot of Fords it looks like. 😂

[@dave3657]

The rear diff(erential) is diff(erent). 😁 Heated and cooled cup holders! 😳 That’s awesome.

[@acendagrowth]

"removable but plug" ... well this is going to be an awesome review!

[@scottbutler2343]

Your eyelids strained to keep your eyebulbs in their sockets on that brake test. 😂 😂

[@wfoguy]

Interesting. Many of us will never drive a higher end vehicle that is an suv. Performance vehicles, yes. The kind that don't make sense. I'd like to see a long term maintenance profile. Thank you, Ms. Sarah.

[@fredsalfa]

Mind blown going up and down that steep hill😮😮😮

[@IronmanV5]

Yes, we enjoyed the review. We always enjoy your reviews.

[@billsitter8278]

Great review of an incredible car! I have generally considered Mercedes a bit excessive & unremarkable for their price point (i.e. the 2nd world war G-Wagon ( I drive a V8 Jeep Overland), but this SUV seems to knock it out of the park for its price range. I would struggle to justify the additional cost for a Bentley comparing it to this offering, which has been a consideration. Your review seems to have nailed the driveability & comfort considerations, especially that back-up the hill.😁 You would be an incredible Granddaughter to have along as a vehicle shopping companion. Cheers

[@andrewvincent1166]

Thanks

[@eduardov.3450]

Muy buenas tomas aéreas en la parte de off Road 👍

[@shroomyesc]

I'd be curious to see your take on the full AMG version of this. I'm usually not a huge fan of the performance editions of normal cars, but since the GLS in any guise is super luxury _and_ you can get those gigantic monoblocks either chrome or black on the AMG GLS it'd be my pick if I had that kinda money.

[@rickbullock4331]

Beautiful vehicle but way north of my cash availability for sure. Mercedes does know how to built a quality vehicle for sure. That powertrain is probably pretty much bulletproof. Nice review as usual Sarah.👍👍🇨🇦

[@McTroyd]

Everybody thumb up this video so Sarah can get Mercedes' attention and maybe review a G wagon! 👍

[@stephenwood9662]

STOP putting cat noises on….I’ve been looking for my cat 😂

[@sebological]

OMG!😂 I was doing the same thing !

[@randywl8925]

Curiosity ki.......... .....nevermind. 🫣

[@dalehenry4694]

😅😂

[@lowpost23]

If it’s similar to the previous generation there’s a button on the top of the second row seats that automatically collapse the seats forward for easy access to the 3rd row.

[@2bunphettered788]

Impressive.💪
