ML55 AMG doing Lion's Back

cesguz is about 103% full of it.

jimster enters the typical, and remarkable, anti-H2 comments. I doubt he's ever even taken a good look at one, or at a Touareg, which seems to have about 8" of clearance to some parts that can't be raised by the air susp, low-profile tires, and plastic skid plates. The part you'll drag when the shoddy departure angle comes into play seems to be the muffler, and the frame is safe & secure up above the functional parts. (joke)

With respect to the comments of Elk, who entered some nicely reasonable commentary, i think a Rubi can situationally outperform an H2, but i can't imagine that the Benz G could. I measured one a few weeks back while shopping w/a friend, and its lacking clearance & angles, and it doesn't look like the poor approach/departure leads to a great breakover & more resistance to getting hung up. + its TCS deactivates when yo ulock even one diff, leaving it reliant on lockers to go anywhere, which i dont' think is always ideal.

But i blabber. Mostly i was thinking it would be funny if the hummer messiah visited that thread.
