G wagon coolest MB ever?

I have to say after playing around with my friends its simply mystifying, its absolutely perfect everywhere.

From camping in the woods to the trendiest of bars, to gun shows, to whatever, it just fits in!

MB hit a home run, the G wagon is like a Swiss Army knife, its always useful!

The closest MB IMHO is the 600, since it said to anyone who wasn't inside your poor FU.

I used to not like them, but it seems they have grown on me. I would love to have one now. I also wish gas was still under $1 a gallon . . . . Actually, I've seen diesel Gwagens and that's what I'd REALLY like to have.

Quite. I need to have my friend bring his the next time we have a meet.

But overall yes, the G is just plain cool. Now imagine if you had a cabriolet version. 100% coolness

It's been covered already. Expedition planning error more then anything else.
