Just thought I would add that after reading this thread I decided to give the ML another chance. I thought I had the worst 4WD or AWD SUV until... Well last night I got a little crazy and stopped at the base of a snowy incline. I then hit the gas and when the right rear began to spin, I kept on it. After about 20 seconds the little beast actually started up the hill, quite to my surprise. I know my Expedition would have just spun wheels. I now have a greater respect for the capabilities of the ML!
