Here's Car and Driver's long term review of the GL320. Overall, they were favorably impressed:

The review makes a big deal about the price, but they never really look at cost of ownership (purchase price MINUS residual value after a few years). I do not imagine that an Escalade or a Navigator will hold value like a GL.

The sidebar also notes that a Honda Odessey will carry more and offer more comfort. No kidding! It's a minivan.

What's next I wonder? A comparison of Cargo space between Odessey and GL? I bet you that GL will lose that one too.

They are not comparing same metaphorical food groups.
