I currently drive a ML 350 diesel and have been very happy with it. The lease is almost up and I will either get another one or get an Audi Q7 diesel or BMW X5 diesel. I had an extended test drive of the Q7 and loved it. I have a friend with the BMW also very happy.Jeep Liberty CRD diesel 2.8L
4 cylinders European drive train, excellent fuel economy, about 8L/100km on the HWY and 10L in the city. Friendly insurance rate. Can pull a camping trailer or a 18 foot boat very easy.

If you have more cash you can go for the big brother Grand Cheroke diesel powered by the V6 Mercedes engine.

My all time favorite is VW Touareg V10 TDI.
Hard to find one because they were very expensive and sold poor on Canadian market. Now VW has a new V6 TDI on the market, much cleaner, much cheaper... but less power vs. the old dirty V10 TDI.
Do the MB and Audi involve the DEF additive or something else in the operating regime?The Mercedes ML diesel is a fine vehicle and less $$$ than the BMW X5 diesel.
However, the X5 Diesel engine is a powerful thing of beauty and smooth torque. Like you have never experienced. Much better than the Mercedes in terms of powertrain.
But only worth the extra money if it is worth it to you
Test drive both and see which one you like better.
That would be worth waiting for, imho.If you can wait apparently the MB GLK will be dieselized
If it can be adapted to other sources of pollution, it may slow down global warming!So should that cut down on hot stinky air coming from their tailpipe?
