And Mercedes made an outstanding 'real' 4x4 with the G series. I mean Sahara cruisin' quality 4x4. The car is so good many mainland European armies standardized on it, replacing the ancient but indestructable Land Rover's in the case of Holland. Why then, I ask, come on the market with such a useless toy-car like the M series!! The cad leaves me even more baffled. I mean, OK, I'm Yurpean, and I understand that tastes & marketing ideas from the US to Yurp differ about as much as the pond between them is wide, but *pahlease*, a Cadillac badged monster-truck, based on a GMC??? Come on! They must have had some pride over at Cadillac. However, having said that, I doubt that, because back in the 80's they already had the Opel Ascona/Vauxhall Chevallier rebadged to Cadillac Cimarron shoved up their shadowy spot... However, they were on their way back with the '92 STS and successor. Now they seem to have completely lost it again.
