Hello folks,

I recently purchased a 2010 GL550 in Arctic white. The car currently has 40k miles, which I feel is peanuts compared to some of you. I'm curious to know who has the most miles on their GL?

70K on 2007

35k 09 GL 320, but we are about to take a 3000 mile road trip! No issues. 21mpg-30mpg

I think I might take the prize for people active on this forum, I have 109,000 on my 2007.

Innocent_Stud

You very most likely do.

I have nearly 73,000 miles on my 07.

Jim, any major issues so far? I have a 2011 with 10K with no issues but it is way too early to tell.

How about 212,000 miles on a Lincoln Navigator farm off road truck. I'd guess about 4000. in repairs. My GL550 only maintenance for 22000 miles. Must be the driver.

I've got around 120,000 miles on my 2007 GL450.

My vehicle is just over 5 years old now. It was made in Feb 2007. In the time I've had the vehicle here's what I've had outside of normal maintenance:

• Steering wheel leather wore out early
• Comand Unit died
• Rear shock and air shock failure
• Automatic rear hatch switch failure

I think that's all I've had, which isn't too bad in my mind.

35k on a feb 07 build GL 320. Nothing but the turbo hoses since then (recalled after failure), although I know my mileage is low...

Interestingly the COMAND replacement and rear air shock replacement were two items I dealt with my previous R500 too. Nothing else.

55K on MY2007 GL450.

2008 GL320---127,987 miles. No major repairs. Only brakes 1 time, 1 broken winshield from rock off highway, and regular maintenance.
I love it!!

JimBarnhart

I guess I need to get mine out more. ;-)

92,500 miles on a 07 GL450. Original owner and no major repairs. Only small repair was the power steering pump recall and I paid out of warrenty for the rear camshaft seals repair. Given my annual mileage I chose not to buy extended warranty. Happy with that decision as I would have run the miles up much faster than over a longer time period.

I have 350,000kms on my '08GL320CDI; wondering if there's anyone who may know how much further I can expect to go.

2nd turbo (improper fuel filter install caused the first one to quit)
2nd transfer case
2nd set of brakes (all hwy? you bet)

FireGuy

113,000 miles on 2007. I'm the original owner and only major repairs have been the front airbags both at over 100k miles. Best 4X4 and SUV I've ever owned.

jameswh0

I'm thinking of buying this same GL. How have you liked it so far?

BlownV8

I agree. I've got over 160,000 miles on my 2007 GL450. It has been a great vehicle. I will drive another 50,000 to 100,000 before I buy another one. May go to a 166 ML63 or SL65 with a Renntech tune next.

We just finished a three week road trip and past 70,000 on our 2008 GL. I also have a 1985 190 diesel that has over 190,00 and still running.

Hey- wondering if your 07 has given you any issues with the high mileage?? Looking at an 07 pushing 90K. But I don't really want it to start falling apart...
