2013 ML BLUETEC JULY 31
Wow did you check command for 3mpg?

Did you really believe ML BLUETEC milage rating from MB?
They always under rate it.. Many on YOUR blogs get 28mpg average not highway and thats 3mpg over highway rating yes and for ONLY $1500
Do you not know of real world diesel vs gas mpg???? own a few folks perhaps read the command gauge ratings wow can't believe you guys said what you did and for others to critique you didn't review the ML you read from a script of numbers designed by MB to let the 3.5 improvements shine. OK some stuff was great
You speak nothing of engine longevity or resale value of the the diesel.
Wake up smell the coffee...... oh yes you didn't like that feature LOL

Thanks anyway for the review, the intelligent folks here will sift out the and appreciate the other valuable stuff slow shift?? LOL

I love your icons MBWORLD

I don't get it. On mbusa.com they give 20/25 mpg, but on fueleconomy.gov they give 20/27.

Good catch. http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/noframes/31977.shtml. I wonder if the 25 hwy number was preliminary?
