G-Man, funny you mention this. I don't know if you noticed this when you test drove the ML way back when, but it's much the same way. All the ones I've driven were the same. Everyone who drives my truck usually lunges nearly straight forward out of my driveway a large amount and then frantically turns the wheel and overcompensates to avoid the curb on the other side of the street. Then they go wow, that's weird steering. It eases up with a little bit of speed and is excellent on the road, but very counter-intuitive in a parking lot or driveway. I'd be willing to make the sacrifice and swap my ML with your G for a while so you can investigate this further.
