Hey man, I am not going to debate it much more. I haven't driven either off-road. Just looking at the suspension, layout and history of them. I am sure both are more than adequate.

That's not a facelift. The huge grille is only available on the GL550. What you see there is what you get standard.

When I first saw the pics of the GL500 and the huge grille I nearly puked, but as always, it's grown on me.

I like it.

I'd probably get it over the GX.
