I'm not sure if it's a "Girls SUV", but I will say that I definitely see more woman driving them then men...
Maybe it is a girls SUV???

I get people telling me that as well...I think the ML350 is just a bit more timid than the ML550, but unisex suv.

i think any time someone thinks suv, they think girls ride or soccer mom? i almost bought a ml350, but chose the glk for the sportier feel. it just handled better, felt quicker, better exhaust tone.
i would say a real mans suv is a ML63!! i barely see women driving that?

I'm actually quite impressed with the way the ML handle the twisties, I can feel the 4matic kick in and bring the truck around corners. But yeah, its the wife's grocery getter. I never understood the ML63 or the X5M but "if you build it, they will come" right?

I wouldn't be worried about what some boys down the street think. I have no problem driving my wife's car other than the baby on board sign hanging from the back. Any vehicle that weighs more than 4000 pounds is not a feminist vehicle to me.

2011 ML 350 BLUETEC GRAND EDITION
in the past week i have seen 3 ML 63's and women behind the wheel, go figure. to be honest i bought ml 350 over a 911, mainly because of the bluetec engine and being a lot more practical, and pardon my french, but who gives a **** what your loser friends think. Not too many people can dump 80 g's on a vehicle.

Its actually a lesbian-mobile gay-mobile, if you buy one people will look at you funny so don't.












If that's what's stopping you from pulling the trigger, the car is not for you.

And what do these "boys" drive that is so fantastic? Chances are its not a car as expensive or as nice as your ML. I am very interested in knowing. Its always the people who poke on other peoples cars that drive the worste ones out there.

if you're worried, put a rifle rack on the back and strap a deer to the front. doubt anyone will question if you are a girl. (apologies to any female hunters in the forum).

I agree the ML is far from being a woman's ride! more like a chrysler town & country

ML = MASCULINE LUXURY
if it was a chick car there would be no paddle shifters or a sporty interior. your friend should stick with his explorer or cheroke

If the car you drive makes you question your manhood.... you might need some psycotherapy.
