great rigs!

awesome rigs, a true go anywhere vehicle, most will not ever see their full capability, unless you have to jump a curb to get a Latte in Hollywood! LOL

I had an oldie - 1980 - purchased, drove, and sold it for what I paid for it ($15k) a number of years ago. the older ones - like pre-92 were a lot of the inline -6 versions of the classic benz engine. Mine was a 280, they also made a 320 and numerous diesel versions. After 92 they imported the v-8 into the US and popularity really took off.

Now, you can get early ones for $30k, or newer ones for $80k +++.

great vehicles, terrible gas mileage 12-13mpg regardless of in town or hiway - full time 4x4 assures you of that.

nothing NOTHING is better off-road except maybe a Unimog

go for it
