I wish I'd had one last night. It took me four hours to get home from work (7 miles) last night in the snow in my CLS. Of course the CLS was fine as long as I kept moving, but that's not an option in an area like Washington, DC with so much traffic.

Anybody have any good stories about how your ML or G Wagen got you home faster in adverse conditions?

I have some videos of the G in the snow...



I would post them, but some member here would not approve.



With that being said, the G is quite heavy... We could not get it to stop rolling down a hill, and eventually slid into a snow bank.

it's automatic.

My friends got stuck in the snow and I had to push it out because the moron dealer put summer performance tires on it!

I'm still making fun of him for that.

Did he turn them on before or after he got stuck?

You know, they make a 4" suspension lift for the Gs....

Jokes over.


Cars get lowered to the point of breaking things, and SUVs get lifted.

Luckily my other friend as a 3/4 Silverado with some proper rubber and a winch on it so the G can be extracted from whatever it gets stuck in.

Always good to have a real truck like a Chevy around.
