At 84,187 miles, this G 550 sits in a comfortable range for a vehicle of this caliber — well past the initial depreciation curve but still with significant life ahead, especially given the G-Class's legendary durability.

The Sport Utility 4D body style seats five and offers a commanding driving position with exceptional outward visibility thanks to the upright, boxy design.Mercedes-Benz G-Class Reliability and OwnershipWhat Owners Say The G-Class has one of the most loyal ownership bases in the automotive world, and for good reason. The platform was originally developed for military use and has been refined over more than four decades of continuous production. Owners consistently report that with proper maintenance, these vehicles last well beyond 150,000 to 200,000 miles without major mechanical drama.
