I had exactly the same thought. Both my Cayenne S and Touareg V10TDI have air suspension, multiple locking differentials, and low range -- and off-road would eat the lumbering GL alive. Our GL550 has air suspension and none of the rest, as far as I know -- and regardless, the 21" wheels don't leave me a lot of useful tire selection for inclement weather, so it's relegated to being a sunny-day driver.
