Off-road!

Wow, these are the first pictures I've seen of real people taking these vehicles off-road. Seems almost like a foreign concept, so actually use the 4WD system. Awesome!

HAHAHA. The Mercedes ML 4WD is a really good 4WD, its got all the great gizmos like esp 4ETS ect... but the only problem we found with the ML was the ground clearence. only if they put big desert dueler tyres and raised the suspension travel it will be a great Offroader. and bigest mistake was those sidesteps, they rob you of ground clearence.

But if mercedes did this then the Ml wouldnt not be able to cope with the german autobahns and will be unsafe a high speeds.

Enjoy? Sure, I enjoyed the picture, but probably not in the way that you intended.

That's hilarious.

UnCal...

yes they are the rs-3's. i like them a lot, sporty but not as "bling bling" as some of the others...

ride's a little rougher but it could be from the new springs and struts...

My '98 makeover...

Just (a few weeks ago) did a mid-life makeover on my '98. it already had 18" Lorinser RS-3s w/ Yok 285/50 AVS/ST and Remus exhaust. I had the bumpers, flares & rockers painted out, added ML 55 grille, bi-xenons, 2003 taillights, new bumper guard, chrome bits, Bilstein shocks. Hella FF200 chromes & rear hatch filler panel coming.

Before:


After:
