A Used Mercedes G-Wagon Can Be Surprisingly Affordable

Normally, a Mercedes G-Wagon (aka G-Class) isn’t exactly a bargain. The SUV retains its value surprisingly well for a luxury off-roader, and even old models can sometimes sell for six figures. Usually, the only way to get a G-Wagen on the cheap is to get one from the military. However, it is still possible to …

Jeep Wrangler Not Insane Enough? Make It a 6-Wheeler

What’s an easy way to make an SUV more ludicrous? Add wheels. Mercedes-Benz demonstrated this when engineers gave the outgoing G-Class an extra axle and pickup bed to create the G 63 AMG 6×6.

True, a Suzuki Jimny offers bare-bones buffoonery, but there’s something about a 6-wheeled pickup that supersedes logic. And even without extra wheels, the G-Class, like the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, …

Why Would You Ruin a Perfectly Good G-Wagen Like This?

New or old, Mercedes-Benz’ G-Wagen is an impressive off-roader. The SUV’s climbed 100% grades, even without extra axles. Classic G-Wagens still have multiple locking differentials and all-wheel drive, making them valuable and highly-capable. And because Mercedes didn’t need to update the G-Class much over the years, the SUV retains value better than other SUVs or …
