I disagree--most SUV's consume more--the '07 x3 is EPA 18/26 about on par with larger cars. It gets better mileage than the Audi Allroad I traded in--a station wagon--it was rated at 15/23.--in the SUV group it gets good mileage and does not require premium fuel.

I stated hybrid or compact cars, not an Audi allroad or larger vehicles. My point is, if anyone is willing spend dollars on these type's of vehicles AWD, SUV, Full size high end cars, the last thing you should be worried about is gas consumption nor the type of fuel its neeed for it to run.
Now if the Diesels were offered here and MB has a few models out there, that would be a totally different discussion. But I do not believe they offer it on the ML series.... Which is what I earlier stated, Gas consumptions on SUV's. Can't get around it because they are heavy.
Power to weight ratio!
