First ‘19 G to 10kmi?
 

Anyone beat me to it?

I got my 10kmi service on Monday. It was $510 after a 10% off coupon. I’m happy to report that my windshield is still original, I didn’t need any additional oil before the first service, and I still love my G. :y

Congrats! Here's to many more :y

@dunderhi Outside the positive news getting to 10k ok, how is it going? How's the ride, etc? Anything interesting you discovered, enjoy, dislike, learned?

Sorry for the slow response, but I’ve been traveling and haven’t visited the site in a while. Today, MB Me Connect kept telling me about my G’s status, so I sent a my wife a note asking if she is using my truck. She confessed and then let me know it can carry 20 bags of mulch. So, our G isn’t a Starbucks and back look at me truck.

Complaints:
1) Lane Keeping Assist - I think it’s programmed to be too aggressive and as a result somewhat dangerous. I deactivate it after every engine start.
2) Gas Mleage - I knew it would be bad, but MB and/or the EPA got it wrong. It’s more like 15 City and 13 Highway.
3) Parking Garages - It doesn’t fit in most of them, but if your is clean and shiny, it earns a spot in front of the hotel.

Unsure:
1) Tuning - I got the G550 expecting it to be rather sedate, but the transmission is programmed to be fairly aggressive. It’s more like an AMG than a generic Benz. The exhaust will pop in Sport mode.
2) Rear Tire Control - I can get them to break free in the snow and lock up during dry braking, muck like a pick-up. I like that type of feedback personally, but most would argue the safety systems aren’t doing their job.
3) Airtightness - Or should I say watertightness? I certainly want the latter, but the former needs some getting used to if the A/C is on MAX. I’ve got it all figured out, but it took a bit time.

Likes:
1) Seat Position - I love the commanding view.
2) Seat massage - It’s my #1 short cut. I use it every time I drive.
3) Voice Command - I know it’s not MBUX, but making phone calls and programming the NAV works pretty well.
4) It intimidates the Canadian Geese - We have hundreds of these birds at work and they block traffic frequently. The G seems to be the only vehicle that gets them motivated to get out of the way.
5) Adaptive Suspension - Sport can get choppy on rough pavement, but comfort makes a world of difference.

Lovely review! Thanks for sharing
