'19 G63 Replacement options
Getting ready to sell it as the offer was too good to turn down. What are some other options for a daily driver some here would recommend? Will likely come back to G63 for '22 model year, fairly certain MBUX will be added on those. Thinking of a new daily in the meantime and seems kind of difficult.

Not sure why you would want MBUX. I just had a loaner equipped with MBUX and Mercedes has achieved new highs in audio obnoxiousness and stupidity, so the only way you will enjoy MBUX is if you are totally tone deaf or you don't use the system at all.

X5M. It's an incredible driving experience, very fun to drive, endless power and torque, good combo of looks and class, split tailgate and IMO best infotainment OS. This and the G63 IMO are the best SUVs in the market right now. I haven't driven the Bentayga but I would consider it.

Cars I would look at if I were to move on from the G - RSQ8, RS6 Avant, X5M. New Range Rover sounds like not until mid-2022.
Would be weird for me to drive another Benz than a G so that's why I didn't list GLE.

The split tailgate in the X5M is a huge plus, highly useful and nice to have. I don't think I would consider an SUV without it (except G). RSQ8 has a single tailgate and driveshaft hump which eats up space in the second row

No more MB:(
As for GLE, forget it. That is a hot mess. Not even in the same ballpark.

Excited about the new Range Rover as it has big shoes to fill and potential BMW powertrain seems exciting. X5M could def be a placeholder until then. Urus is getting a little tired plus the Urus Evo is announced so I can see values tanking. Alpina XB7 is tempting but gets too big.
