No argument there. We all have differing opinions, hence the reason there are so many different brands to choose from. All said, it comes down to choosing what you like. I do agree in some form, yes, the GL is not quite comparable to the X5 but I think they are close when you speak of 7 seaters on the market. Both are nice vehicles and both I guarantee will have headaches - just a fact of german electronics. Depends on what you prefer driving.
