Average Miles/year on GL

Usually the rule of thumb says as 1000miles/month or 12K/year
Folks who have GL do you guys stays less than 12k an year or how much most of you guys put in a year

That's only around 20 mules a day. Definitely not doing that diesel any justice.

97 S600 coupe/gf 16 C300 Lux. Former: 08 GL450, 83 300D, 97 C230, 08 c300 luxury, 92 500SL, 93 400E
12k a year here on a 450. I think it's expected that the diesel guys are gonna have a lot more miles. I'd hope you'd see something more like 8-10 on a 550, and any AMGs should be lake trip/weekend outing vehicles with 5k a year........but that's just my own rules

I have 75,000 on my 2008 GL320CDI, or an average of 9,375 per year.

I put about double that on my Mini Cooper Countryman S.
