[@WW-wf8tu]

They were in WA. with the 550 in the early summer. Was in some rough trails. They are extremely capable and adorable. But your point is correct. Even the loaded people are not likely going to be out pin striping and panel banging their way through trails with them.

[@macbookpro57]

Out here in Germany you can see them offroading. But that are usually 80's and early 90's models or the W461 Professional.

[@terrytees]

Yeah thats right, truth is the real G Wagen is forbidden fruit for 99 percent of the world and the G63 is only designed to be driven on pavement. The W460 and W461 are the ones made for Nato and the Army, basically the the same G without the bling and with a proper ground clearance. It has almost no luxury and tons of torque in low gears via a diesel V6 /no AGM here/ plus plug hole in the floor for drainage, no carpets or electric windows and defiantly no infotainment. Known as the "G-class 300 CDI Professional W461" they are only currently available in Australia and South Africa and still no one buys them as they are stupidly overpriced. Plus they look a million times better than the G63 and the rest of the bling versions that look dated next week. 40 years down the line a W461 will still look the business. Out of six G's, five of which were the G63's types experienced shock absorber damage and breaking down during a demonstration drive along Western Australia’s notorious 2000km Canning Stock Route. Only one made it past half way and that was a W461 pro.

[@windandvoidboxer7782]

I like that you address the fundamental undertones of this paradox. Why do we go off-road at all, when we can travel 'easier' on paved roads? It's a rhetorical question. The more we surround ourselves with material technology, the more detached and desensitized we become from our fundamental human nature, and so we crave a return to the 'rugged life' that puts us back in touch with.... oh never mind. It's about status.

I'd be happy with either.. However...personally..since I'd need to buy some other aftermarket gear....to truly make it into a overlander.. I'd probably end up picking the 550.. although that 63 is gorgeous.

[@Nickwillfixit]

G550 much better value and more sensible for Colarado, the G63 is a poser's cruiser regaurded as a Chelsea Tractor here in the UK the only offroading it gets is parking on the pavement when there is knowhere else to park, and ouch on fuel, pass anything but a gas station, too juicey a lumbering beast.

[@southhillfarm2795]

Why don't you guys just admit it these cars will never even see a gravel road.

[@Jeff-Vader_head_of_catering]

Great review, guys! I think Tommy has the better line on this one. Tommy's mentality is set towards function. Sorry Roman, but generally the people concerned with "the best" don't really care about it's capabilities. They generally care more about shoving their "AMG" logo in the "less rich" people's faces, and their best-of-the-best off-roading vehicle will probably never touch a dirt road, let alone sand dunes, deep snow back country, or rock crawling.

[@joetool4016]

Temp. "Hey, let's take all of the most offroad worthy hardware and put it on a vehicle nobody will want to take offroad." Boss. "Why?!" Temp grins. "I can give you 175,000 reasons."

[@ginofoogle6944]

This whole video is null and void.. obviously you are going to take the AMG version of this.. because if you REALLY wanted an off road car you wouldn't get a 125k+ car in the first place.. you get something cheaper.. you know.. something that, if god forbid, it flipped over wouldn't cost you an arm and a leg.

[@xanth987]

Buy the 550 and the 50 large you’d save, shove it into the gas tank and shares in a body shop. Don’t forget the last time Roman took a merc off-roading against a toyo and a Jeep, you can practically hear him butt clinching in the video.

[@AlainSTO]

This was like someone who actually knows what he's talking about for off-road arguing with Tim the Toolman Taylor.

[@dexeter3033]

Most of the vehicles you test that are labeled as off-road would barely be able to handle the pot hole infested roads of North East Pennsylvania. They're imposter off road vehicles. The G63 included.

[@mrg2943]

Did that, done that off roading (shown in the video) with 22" on G63 amg. Still, going to get 20" wheels for it and maybe a lift kit (it'll be more fun) :D

[@rlaracue]

Get the 550 and then change out tires, rims, and turn it into an overlander. Not really a rock crawler unless you like massive repair bills and waiting for parts. :)

[@bosse641]

Do they offer a simple rugged less expensive off-road version of it ? If not, why not ?

[@okigojuryu]

To my knowledge the German military has surplus ones for sale that are bear bones basic.

[@chrisstormer5743]

Definitely the G63 AMG. No such thing as a practical G-wagen, so you might as well go big or go home.

[@Rictar85]

Chris Stormer exactly ! I think this is a pointless argument

[@rallyfanmx]

I’m with Tommy. Roman is always shying away from hurting expensive vehicles on the trails, maybe a little bit too much sometimes. Now he says the 63 is better at it than the 550? I bet he would be the first one to back off the trail in the AMG.

[@johnbradley2016]

Both wrong. Buy a Lx570 for the city and a Rubicon for offroad. All for the price of the 550

[@CarlosCeballos56]

If you want to go off road in a Gwagon just get the G350, or the G500. The G550 is for someone who doesn't have the money to get the G63 but wants a very nice interior. Best choice for off road get the G500.

[@et1965]

Tommy wins. Also, the new top of the line Land Rover Defender will eat the G wagon for breakfast :) One thing both of these have in common. I can't afford either :p

[@steelhorseman6883]

If you are rich enough to get 1 AMG63, why stop at getting just the off road tire? Just get 2, 1 for on road and 1 for off road.

Oh geez...2 percent of either will see off-road duty. It’s for street cruising!

[@LukeEdward]

I can get a white, Haines, Beefy T for $6, or I can get a Rodeo Drive, (insert high-fashion name) white shirt for $75. To me, it’s the “great guy,” or “D-Bag” buying it that makes the difference. Buy what you want and can afford. Just don’t be a “D-Bag” and we’re all good.

[@ahmedhassanjan7690]

The side pipe really matter, some rocks are very big and also when they're is no other route, you need to go over them

[@luisandresguevararamirez2905]

[@ChuckRage]

63 if the main purpose is road driving, 550 if used off-road more regularly

[@regsparkes6507]

" Sawzall" that one broke me up!! Geez Roman! Sorry my friend, but your Son is correct in this one,.../.Tommy's points are well taken,.but then I have a feeling that there's a truck load of 'tongue in cheek' commenting going on here. That grille on the AMG looks like something from Russia, about 20 years ago,..and that grille guard system ( 'dental braces' ) well,..that has got to be replaced. I would rather have the ultimate Mercedes Benz vehicle,....a UNIMOG!! Good and enjoyable 10 minutes of fun video here. Thumbs up!

[@heikoheinrich5126]

In Germany we have the old version of it (with two solid axles and narrower body) as the 350 d Professional.

[@noelebbert9322]

I love the G wagons. unfortunately i am and always will be too poor to afford one. I wonder if G wagons are covered under obamacare.......

If it was covered under obamacare - you'd pay a G wagon price and find that when the truck showed up, it was really a Yugo with a G wagon body kit.

[@luxuryboi3033]

Dude if you want it, work for it as hard as possible. Then you will get it.

[@teovm]

I'm sorry but this time Roman is the Winner. If I had $130K to spend on a G Wagon 550 to go on and off roading I would probbably have $180K to go with a 63 AMG G Wagon and some additional options for off the road. But ... No additional tires and wheels, no additional bulbars, no nothing. Just my fathers old '89 2,9l naturally aspirated short wheel base Diesel G Wagon that has already been off roading, hunting, fishing, etc.

[@gearradar]

They’re both silly! I rather have the G30 but it’s not available in North America.

[@reko3103]

If I may use Jeep as an analogy. The AMG is the trackhawk while the G550 is a trailhawk. So which one of these do you take off-road? Does the Formula1 champions AMG even know how to off-road? Anyway, if I have 125k and want to go off-road, I'd be knocking on LandCruiser's door....

[@jamesbaird1342]

I honestly dont like the bumper on the 63 but when I win the lottery I might buy it.

[@JOHNJ0HN9111]

No one's wrong here.. we all have our own opinions..

[@WW-wf8tu]

Tommy is correct. Actually, you are both wrong. Even the people whom are loaded are not going to bash their rigs about in the trail systems that the every day driver will. If you go to open terrain where people can play with their 4WD systems and not risk damaging them, you might see a few. But don't get out the tally pad, because odds are, you are only going to need 10 fingers or less. ;)
