If you need to haul people and/or cargo and desire one of the plushest, technologically advanced vehicles in which to do it, the 2013 Mercedes GL-Class could be just your ticket. Slightly smaller than a Cadillac Escalade and more rugged-looking than an Audi Q7, the GL is the vehicular equivalent of the strong and silent type.
The GL’s accouterments and abilities don’t come cheap. The least expensive GL-Class starts at more than $63,000, and costs can rise to over $100,000 for a loaded version. Less-expensive – yet still posh – alternatives are the Audi Q7, Infiniti JX and Buick Enclave.
