2002 G500

I'm thinking about getting a 2002 G500. I do go on a lot of road trips and need a comfortable car. I read a lot about vibration, tire wear and wind noise. How bad is it? I don't really want to rotate the tires every 3000 miles. anything to look out for on a 2002? any known problems?

There are plenty of know problems with an 02. Mine thankfully hasn't had any except the dash rattle. I would advise taking the vin number and checking the history at a benz dealer. If the car has been in numerous times for electric gremlins and other problems, stay away. If service looks good, go for it. We love ours and it is great on trips.Very comfy for us.
