Exactly. The GL450 is for the Wife and Kids to ride around in style.
It is a fine SUV, and any one looking for an SUV should look at that ride.
Smooth ride, will haul any trailer, and even will go offroad with the offroad package.

The Range was intended for the trail, but have gotten really serious with that unit yet. I had a Black HSE that I got stuck at the beach and was flooded out. Ran for 3 weeks before it broke down and the insurance company totalled it.

The new Range is the supercharged model, and gives a few of the cars around the woodlands a run for their money on the streets - lol.

The SL, well, everyone knows that is just a toy
