Need some help with GL purchase
Hello all.
Purchased my 2011 E550 a few months ago and absolutely loves it.
So I've been thinking about the GL to swap out our current suv.
Questions:
How is the acceleration of the 350 blue tec?
Any differences from 2010 vs. 2011?
Any options that I should not be leaving out?
Any other tips will be greatly appreciated.

GL 320cdi, Chevrolet Avalanchero, GLE 350 (on order)
What country are you in? That would help as different models are offered as well as different options.
The acceleration on the 350 diesel is pretty good. You have to drive it a bit differently but I can't see needing a much faster car in normal situations. I mean it is just as fast 0-60 as many sports coupes and sports sedans were just a few years ago.
If you have the 420 V8 diesel in your market, that would be best.
As far as options go, suit yourself, but I would not get a GL without running boards.
