To those of you in the market for a shiny new Mercedes GL450, the San Francisco Chronicle recently took their turn behind the wheel of Mercedes' seven-passenger SUV, offering up their impressions of what to expect should you indeed opt for the newly-introduced model.

Unfortunately, while the author does his best to deliver witty prose, the review ultimately falls far short of previous GL450 articles with not much more than basic GL's specifications being mentioned, any of which can be found on MBUSA's corporate website.  About the only actual review portion of the article I was able to find was that the GL was "very quiet" and "very strong", which, if you've read other GL reviews, you're already aware of.

All in all, a poor attempt at reviewing this year's most praised large SUV.

To learn more, head over to the San Francisco Chronicle where you can find their unfulfilling, poorly-executed Mercedes GL450 review in its entirety.
