So the 10,000 other Mercedes GL reviews haven't sold you yet?  Still not sure whether or not the new mega-Mercedes SUV is worth laying down the 50 large you've worked so diligently to attain?

If you're one of the afore-mentioned consumers who has to read every single review ever published about a car before making the leap, we've got you covered.

This time, the newest opinions of the Mercedes GL 450 are coming courtesy of the folks over at Inside Line.  They recently took their turn behind the wheel of the 2007 Mercedes GL 450, and found (among other things) the GL was surprisingly nimble, comfortable, and powered well.

What was their overall view of the GL?  And I quote: "As a 'premium full-size tow-rated sport-utility,' the GL450 might indicate that the SUV pie is inexorably slivering into ever smaller niches, but as a practical tool (and even as an everyday driver), it sets a new benchmark. Nothing from Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Range Rover or Volvo can compare to the GL's combined size, capabilities and drivability."

That's a mighty bold statement if I do say so myself.

Of course, to see how Inside Line arrived at their conclusion, it's necessary to read the entire review.  To do so, you can find the full article over at Inside Line by clicking here.
