Mercedes ML350 First time on Fraser Island

[@williambyast7791]

The V6 Turbo Diesel is a Cranker!! Love mine.

[@andrewhudson23]

Great video. Looks like you had a fantastic trip. Well prepared and well supported. Thanks for sharing.

[@steliofrasco3455]

Great tribute to Ml ; a luxury suv that can keep up with the likes of Toyota landcruiser. On a magnificent island

[@jasonhelmes5872]

Well done I lovevthe ML Merc

[@notsoniceduck]

Nicely put together video and you looked well prepared. T looked a bit busier than when I was last there 25 years ago. It's also great to see a ML out there as well. Looks like you didn't have a problem with ground clearance either.

[@vietho3683]

Many thanks!

[@vietho3683]

actualy it is better clearance than rigid axle one. like hilux, landcuiser and others.

[@Lumberhacksteve]

Well done and great video, as commented before a good driver in a lesser capable vehicle is much better than a bad driver in a capable vehicle. You have fairly standard tyres, 18 or 19 inch rims and low profile tyres and made it work for you. Those other idiots clearly had no idea, and to bog a car as bad as some of those clowns is just testament to the fact that some people should not be allowed to have a 4wd. I hope others here watching see this as a good reason to go and do a 4wd course. Keep up the great work.

[@vietho3683]

Thanks for the great comment

Very inspiring! What about your spare wheel carrier: please share what brand/model you have on your hook?

[@vietho3683]

Hi George, the spare wheel carrier is custom make

[@GeorgeFire-on7ek]

@@vietho3683 Great that it's custom. Can you send me by email some photos from the side / front / above so I can recreate it myself for my ML here in Europe? Let me know if that's OK, and I will share my address :)

[@Stoic-of-Rome]

What version ML was it? did you have the standard 4 matic or did you have the locking diff option? Well done, good effort either way!

[@kaly4875]

Hello, what are the dimensions of the tire on the Mercedes ML?

[@thatsoutrageous1961]

Top job !

[@vietho3683]

Thanks!

[@user-ho1is5mh7v]

what year Mercedes ?

[@finchtoob]

Well driven mate, the ML is certainly not as capable as other 4WDs but as you proved, a good driver can get it where you need to go (and a bad driver can get a Landcruiser bogged to the chassis 😅)

[@Jester123ish]

The Mercedes 4wd is full time engaged and whilst not as good as locking diffs, it's superior to open diffs. MLs have quite a following in Latvia and Russia where their abilities are quite useful.

[@keponen331]

Hey there, nice film mate :) I have a question, do you have in your ML off road pro package?

[@vietho3683]

yes, will be dificult without it.

[@agondokusumo-111]

What was the size of the 18" tyres?

[@vietho3683]

yes it is

[@FroggysGoldProspecting]

I haven’t seen an airbag exhaust jack ever used on here even though it would be the fastest way to get any car out of the hole then just deflate the tyres to 15psi and off you go.

[@rip4273]

Very nice video. Is the ML standard, just with the off road package from factory?

[@vietho3683]

everything is factory standard including offroad package.

Awesome clip mate !! good on you for taking the Merc over there as many wont,Im thinking about taking a ML500 over did you drop the inflation on your tyres at all ? they don't look bagged at all.Did it handle the heat ok ?

[@vietho3683]

HI, i don't recoment to take the ML without off road pack to Fraser.

[@aliasgertayabali5260]

Please can you explain what you mean by off road pack

[@Jester123ish]

@@vietho3683 Hi, I'd also like to know what is in the offroad pack? I have the earlier ML430 so you didn't need to pick that option.

[@vietho3683]

@@Jester123ish the off road engineer package for this model is low range, center differential lock, higher suspension lift and some software progame for off road condition

@@vietho3683 I would suppose it's kind of hard to find cars that the Off Road Pack option fitted?
