G class gets poor gas mileage, tires are expensive, turning radius is horrible, troubles with windows, rough ride, loud, very big, but.... it is heavy duty, great in the snow, excellent offroad, comfortable, spacious,but I wouldn't recommend one, unless you live in the jungle or go offroading alot.

I know its a great truck that is beyond the point. I am still young and trying to see what I am getting my self into for the true cost of ownership basically I dont wont to get in over my head.

Ok if that's the case get a M.B certified GWagen that way any minor or big problem is taken care by M.B.N.A.
