2013 GL450 or 2014 GL350
Hi - I am replacing a 2012 GL350. I have to order a 2014 GL350, none available at dealers. I have the option of going into a 2013 GL450. I have enjoyed the 12 GL350 for it great gas mileage - get up 28 MPG on highway, amazing for a vehicle of its size.
I need members opinions on what to do. What are real world MPG numbers on highways for the GL450? I assume its a smoother engine also.
Thanks for the input.

Welcome, I'd start by reading this post. Real world MPG seems to be about 5 mpg, 450's seem to get up to about 21/22 and 350's seem to get up to about 27/28.

I think you'd be happy with more power in the 450, also the '13's should have some good prices on them soon!
