Well, its been nearly 5 years since the ML was introduced in 97 as a 98 model - there must be many high mileage MLs out there. What has been your experience with problems past the 50K mile mark? Anyone with over 100K? Does ML have the long term durability and build quality of those 70s and 80s mercedes, or is it just another Chrysler vehicle rebadged as mercedes?

My friend's ML's 3 year lease is up, and he wants to decide whether to keep it or ditch it.

thanks.
