People forget these are off road vehicles originally designed for the military. They are happiest off the pavement, yet so few actually see wilderness action because of the status symbol aspect of them. People that buy them as mall crawlers then complain about ride quality arent very bright.
Well its likely the price and cost of parts. I mean new these things cost almost as much as a condo and bashing parts on rocks and trails knowing how much repairs and parts are is not appealing to many people when you can just get a jeep or an old land cruiser. Most the Gwagons I have seen are either new and being driven by someone very wealthy, or an older one and someone is just taking a flyer on a depreciated G wagon hoping nothing goes wrong for 2 to 3 years then selling it on.
@@ahastar1141if I were to get one I’d prob trade in my F150 .
I’m thinking he was gone say, $18-27k… 😂😂😂😂😂the AVERAGE working class guy ain’t Spending $100k on a G Wagon my Boi
Lmaoo a used 2003 G wagon still going for $30k. They hold their value like no other car
@@richierich410 Well its also not like there are a ton of them driving around so quantity wise, there likely arent a bunch showing up used
yeah thats stupid on his part. but you were stupid too thinking a g wagon could be 20k
obv it's not for average people
Please get this guy a haircut
He can’t find a place. He’s in Utah.
Ok, is it me, 1. Which year is this G Wagon, 2. What is the price?
According to the link, it's a 2021 with 35,500 miles with a reasonable asking price of $150k. LOL. Absurd.
@@CU08 when you have nearly 400K subscribers and you are pulling in 50K per month his dirt cheap comment makes sense.
2019 and later doesn’t go below 100k!
I think we buy different dirt. Your Dirt is not cheap.
A dealer told me that they required a $30k “market adjustment” on an ordered 2025!!!
When I was stationed in Europe in the early ‘90s, the German military used these as GP trucks - just another diesel rattle-wagon in the motor pool. Mercedes struck gold when they put V8s and leather seats in and found us Americans willing to pay Duck Tales money for them. No thanks.
Completely agree...as a military Officer who was stationed in Germany as well, it was also interesting to see all of the Mercedes sedans that the locals there use as taxis. Cars people in the US pay 100K for a local German looks at as a beater.
Sorry i missed the dirt cheap part, let me rewatch it and slap a dislike for clickbait
They have reasonably low mileage 2019 g550s for around $100k now. I guess that’s better than $150k new.
Love those things. Don’t want to put gas in it though. I also don’t want to attract robbers. I have always wanted one. They are built like a tank too.
New … 130k 4 years old at 100-105. How is that a deal ?
You are not getting a new G Wagon for $130k
@@JoeGiz64 msrp is 148k for a 2025, a 2019 as pictured started at 125k.
Expect to spend another 30k on repair in the next 24 months
One of the most reliable mercedes.
😂
Gas mileage is abysmal on these things.
They are not made as well either . A lot of plastic and squeaky dash . High decibels inside .
Wonder what the monthly insurance costs on one of these. Not to mention when you drive one, it says "hey I have lots of money come follow me home and rob me at gunpoint".
In the areas you’d live and drive one of these cars this is a regular traffic soccer mom car you wouldn’t glance at twice.
You know - when everything is described as ‘iconic’ then nothing is ‘iconic’……
From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
Excuse me for real?,how is that
possible I have struggling
financially, how was that possible?
Thanks to Elizabeth Marie Hawley.
Though I started with as low as $15,000 actually because it was my first time and it was successful, She's is a great personality in the states
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Elizabeth Maria Hawley) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Elizabeth Maria Hawley on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out
You say raptors dirt cheap and now these? But I’m still looking and can’t find either.
That hair cut. You look like you could star along Johnny Depp in 'Blow'.
That whistling diesel dude beat the F**K outta his G-wagon & I was amazed @ how well it performed under that insane abuse
They're beasts. It's sad how very few people use them like they're supposed to be used.
NO. He hydrolocked and killed the motor pretty easily
Am sure a 350 V8 would outlast it....
@@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806 "pretty easily"?? He drove it into a muddy water pit and the whole engine was submerged.
Better be joking this is price at 120k 😂😂😂😂😂😂 low-ball
I would get a used prior model G wagon, absolutely no reason for me to have it but I want it lol, and yes I am never taking it offroad lol. I test drove the previous version and it just rode like a jeep wrangler. My only complaint in the older version is that its tight inside, definitely wouldn't be a daily driver, more like a date night or show off vehicle.
As a Mercedes owner, this is a ridiculous vehicle. The girls like these compact Barbi mobiles though.
You should give this a try
Millionaires buy G wagons PERIOD, therefore, robbers know your rich and are most targeted!
How are they cheaper? I've been looking to purchase an used one but it seems like the prices has gone up because Mercedes stopped producing V8 for the G550. So people are raising prices for the soon to be rare G550 V8. Great video by the way!
My BMW has more bells and whistles than that thing.
Lol
no 360 camera , no cooled seats
outdated look with a really high price tag and no cooled seats !
G wagon is a good looking suv for a Mercedes
Are the solid axle ones holding their value better than the IFS ones?
youre kidding, right?
@@jedrzejgorski5437 No?
Sounds like Ben will be taking delivery of a g wagon.😅😅😅.
Dirt cheap for a billionaire like Ben.
i’d do g63
Insane depreciation is pretty common for Mercedes. Always buy certified pre-owned Mercs, never new.
Please be warned that this is not a family truck. If you are a family man with young kids, especially if they still use car seats, please pass on this truck. It looks big on the outside but very small and impractical on the inside.
Nice video. They may be cheaper but maintenance is not.
Please realize that no one buying a G wagon cares about maintenance cost.
Really? How much is “maintenance“?!
@@Fedgery007 depends on what is needed but oil change alone will run around $500. Labor charge is anywhere between $200 and $300 an hour depending on dealership.
If you’re spending $100k for a used vehicle then what’s $500 a year for an oil change?
So trade in the Toyota that your wife doesn’t trust for the GWagon. Then you will have a pair, the INEOS and the GWagon that you wanted to begin with.
Click bait...g wagon dirt cheap...100 k....stfu
They will be going up once they see the V6 G550 they look way cheaply build new ones .
This should be that price new. 7:23
What about 2020 G63 ?
Built as a military vehicle for the Shah of Iran....flat glass for no reflection (giving away position/etc)... then Mercedes had to convert their factory to civilian offerings too after the Shah fell. Love their 'squared' offering on portals - one of the only 'Unicorns' I would consider (beyond our LC/4Runner driveway).
Their factory? G Wagon is not built by Daimler.
Maybe your wife’s new vehicle???
Should I go for a used G Wagon or a new Ineos Grenadier?
I prefer the Ineos so far, but I’m also big into off-roading
G-wagon
*ya the whole Made in Germany thing doe* 😅
It's made in Austria
Nawww those are still $130k by me even in the midwest. Id rather have a Bentayga for that price…
His clickbait is getting tiring now.
Love this hair on you Ben! I’m glad they are finally depreciating
This thing is absurd. Who would want a biturbo V8 in a car that's capable of substantial wading? Those turbochargers are going to love a shock cooling, aren't they? Who'd want a luxury interior in a car meant for getting muddy? They're not even selling it on the civilian market in an equipment that'd be remotely suitable for what this car is capable of. Put in vinyl seats with manual adjustment, no unnecessary screens etc., and a 140 hp indestructible Diesel engine that keeps running after the Zombie apocalypse, and you have an amazing offroad car. For sitting on a suburban parking lot, get a life and a sensible car for that use case -- like, one that's actually comfortable. For getting bottle service in a nightclub, take a dang Uber.
But not here 😂
Dawg. Depreciation? In NorCal used is still above $100k.
They used to be high $100K…even for the 550.
The G wagon is a clown car for suckers. I don't get the appeal it's a box on wheels for a rediculous price it's pretty much looked the same forever. For that price you could actually buy some awesome.
It’s a free market 😂why you care
Don’t get upset, some of us like traditional look, my 911 hasn’t changed much in decades either 😂
@2Greenlid That's a real car not a overpriced box on wheels.
Maybe The dumbest vehicle on the market. The flying brick. My sister has one and I despise it.
Your sister doesn’t like you
@@naturalLin she adores that ridiculous beast. She’s on her second one now. AMG version. Loud as hell and handles like a truck. 😂
Somebody salty that they cant afford it.
@@JoeGiz64 not at all. Have you driven one? They are absolutely shit to drive. If someone gave me one I’d list it for sale the next day.
@@jagpilotohio No, never did. I’m on my 3rd S Class and never drove any of them before I bought each new. Best riding car with a ton of power for a big Benz sedan. I’m thinking of moving to G Wagon for next car.
LOL 😂 There is literally no dirt cheap G in Germany. Markups are still crazy 🤬
Ben, your new ride for the house hold?!
how many km?
They are worthless. The maintenance cost is 100x that of anything that is of the same size.
You’re clueless.
Please realize that no one buying a G wagon cares about maintenance cost. Even then, my G550 has been driven 40k+ miles in 2 years, many mountain road trips, across the country two times, and have had 0 issues. Nearing 100k miles now.
Have owned 2 jeep wranglers , Range Rover and a tacoma. G Wagon's are simply more fun and unique if you can afford it.
Wrong, you’re thinking of the Made in Alabama Mercedes S.U.V’s they have so many problems after 2 or 3 short years. I wouldn’t touch them.
This Made in Austria 🇦🇹 ones are rock solid which is why they really don’t depreciate like the American made ones. Which are garbage. 🗑️
Kisses, Ben!
Wtf?
Those are not “fancy seats”. Those are the basic crap seats. That vehicle has depreciated bc is has ZERO options…. This guy knows nothing about G wagons
Be nice!
First❤
Has portal axles correct?
No
