This car is great overall but only has one problem.

This car is great overall but only has one problem. I bought this car July 2023 for around 9k with 90k miles from Florida. The car was in perfect condition with only a minor things broken. From the beginning, I really liked the ride and some of the features like the back up camera. I have the regular ml350 not the diesel and mine is RWD. The only problem is the gas mileage and how much it costs to fill up. I usually drive around in the city about 85% of my driving and I get around 10-11 MPG while it said I am supposed to get around 16 MPG so that mean that I get around 240-260 miles of range on every tank which costs more or less 100$ from empty to full tank. This full tank lasts me 2 weeks and that's crazy expensive for a V6. This car eats gas like a V8. But that's really my only complaint apart from the fact that I changed a lot of the lights in this car because it keeps going out like tail lights and turns signals etc.

Rest while driving and feel safe too.

I have a 2010 ML-350 Bluetec. Overall this SUV is reliable, stylish, frugal on fuel - 23-30 mpg, with nice interior and comfortable ride. I have never been a fan of MB handling but I didn't buy it for racing anyways. I own 4 cars but chose this one to transport my little girl in, feels very safe. The diesel engine has plenty of torque for acceleration, uphill climbing and towing. Great brakes! The only problem with it is the Bluetec, It fails and it is a hassle and pricey to replace, then failed again. Currently in the class action related to this. It might be a vehicle best leased to save on the expenses associated with ageing.

Amazing SUV

The diesel engine is very strong, being barely broken in when I bought it 10 years old (about 130k miles). It is not an AMG, so don't expect to blow doors off other vehicles, but getting around 30 MPG hwy in this size of a vehicle that's AWD...? Phenomenal! Super comfortable & quiet ride. Took me a little to get used to the layout of buttons and controls, but I'm in love with this vehicle.

Perfect for what I need

This ML is perfect for me, I have a 5 year old granddaughter who sometimes is with me, has enough room for her in backseat with all her accessories. I have 2 large golden retrievers that fit fine in the back cargo area without putting the back seat down. Its all wheel drive which comes in handy when I have to park off of the pavement, or off road at fairs and festivals.

Best Car

I recommend for everyone to purchase a car from Olympic Auto Sales!!!!! I brought a 2010 Mercedes Benz ML 350 and it runs like a champ. Not only that the car lot has nice cars, they have awesome sale men and wonderful receptionists. lFamous was able to help me find a car that was suitable for me. And Ms. Bailey help me when I lost my temporary License plate by calling DMV to expedite my permanent license plate.

Good looking, roomy, great driving car

This has been a great car for us, only selling because we need a 3-seater. Love the large tank and the cruising mileage, over 30 mpg, and cruising distance. Handles well and great in snow. Solid and comfortable, luxury ride. Lots of cargo room with the seat up or down. Running boards and roof rack. Great heater and AC. Heated seats. rear camera.

Love this Vehicle

My third Mercedes but first SUV....will never drive a car again. Does not feel like a SUV, typical Benz comfort, ease in driving and safety. Unexpected great gas mileage. Wish I would have switched to this vehicle years ago.
