2017 GLE 350 - Premium 2 -
So you own a GLE, so what do you do?

I'm just very curious of the owners occupations - a GLE is a nice and not a regualar affordable for most middle class individuals. I am a hard working CPA and owns a "black horse" 2017 GLE.
So what do you guys do to feed your "horse"? (GLE)

My wife and I are newly retired professionals. Our 2016 GLE 300d replaced a 2009 Saab 9-5 wagon and a 2008 Porsche Cayenne. Both perfectly fine vehicles, but the GLE is terrific.

I believe Mercedes recommends premium regardless? Why buy the vehicle and not put the proper fuel in it?
