梅塞德斯-奔驰GL450

    奔驰的这款大型SUV是在美国阿拉巴马州生产的，不过它的价值得分并不比S级轿车高多少。它在路试中表现不佳，在可靠性中也排名靠后，总体价值得分还不到平均分值的一半。此外，它每英里使用费用高达1.36美元。或许奔驰公司应该改改那条把话说得太满的广告词了——“只做最好的”（The best or nothing），好给自己留下三分余地。

Mercedes-Benz GL450

    The big Mercedez SUV built in Alabama doesn't fare any better than the S-class. It performed poorly in road tests, ranks in the lower 50% in reliability, and scored less than half the average in overall value. Drivers pay $1.36 for every mile they travel. Perhaps Mercedes should reengineer its absolutist advertising tag line, "The best or nothing," in favor of something more moderate.
