GLE/ML 400 reviews
I haven't been able to find any proper reviews for the GLE or ML400 on Youtube or elsewhere. Are there any?
I like the torque my ML350BTC has but since the V6 diesel not available in the US anymore I'm considering the GLE400 as my next car. I would think that the 400 should be somewhat similar having enough power and not shifting as much as the 350 gas version?
Btw my ML350BTC is sometimes very jerky and bucks when I'm going slowly in stop and go traffic, that drives me nuts. Another thing that bothers me is the distance warning system. There is a lot of bumper to bumper traffic in Chicago and that system beeps a lot when I'm just slowly following other cars from traffic light to traffic light.

I was in the same situation and went with a 400 instead. It does got sufficient power and I was so glad that we didn't get the 300d, which the wife really wanted but that thing was slower than a turtle. Besides that, I don't much to say about the 400 as you have a ML and more or less the build quality and features and more or less the same.
Let's just say I would most likely go another route if it wasn't for my wife wanting a GLE based on 2 things; lack of technology and poor handling.
