Most agree that the first SUV was the Chevrolet Carryall Suburban, which came out in 1935 (see the picture below).

I also attached pictures of the *****'s Jeep Station Wagon and the first Soviet SUV, the “Pobeda” which was produced in limited edition from 1946-1958. Quite beautiful I might add...

I said "NO WAY" to a van too! Had a R350 as a loaner car one day, my kids loved the second row captains, but I didn't care much for it either. On my 3rd GL450 and just love this SUV. The only thing different I could see myself getting is the GL550 or GL63 AMG

GL 350
Just took delivery of 2013 GL 350 this past saturday. Bought it for my wife 24 and I'm 28. Bought it for her as a surprise she doesn't know I got it for her. They gave me a big red bow to put on it!

2014 GL 350 Bluetec
34 year old female. First MB ever, and own the GL 350. Had a '07 Suburban LTZ and felt like it was too big originally. My husband thought it was more practical with kids, dog etc. Owned it for 6 years because I wanted something smaller. Finally got a little bit of a smaller SUV, that drives like a car IMO, but can seat all the kids. Love it. Always have driven an SUV since I was 16. Hate minivans.

My wife (40) drives the "Family Truckster" a 2014 GL550...Too bad MB doesn't offer the woodgrain paneling from the factory.

GL 350
Age 71 Have ordered one. Looks like the best 3 row seating SUV on the market, needed for new grandchildren. First Mercedes ordered. Also, the only 3rd row seating SUV with a diesel, and since I prefer diesels this affected my choice. (I use a battered Jeep Liberty diesel for tough off road work).
