not true ...i dont live in the states, ive seen G's all my life..i saw millitary...rescue ....and other G's.....
then i was introduced to the G wagen againg in the states... and at first glance i sayed it was too old looking... but then i drove one....and i was hooked to its handeling capabilaties... it felt like i was driving the sedans...andn the intirior was realy updated ....(compared the the Gwagens i grew up seing and driving)...
so i beleive that mercedes have breathed new life in to this model....and its the best thing they have done
