I just traded off an ML350 a couple of months ago for a Porsche Cayenne.
Overall the ML was a good winter vehicle.The only issue I had with mine,and I found it is quite common is that it needed a complete set of brakepads at 24k miles.it's not covered under warranty and will cost about $500.
The temperature control system was touchy.Mine was an 03' Ml and the new ones are the same.I was never able to just set a temp and have it stay there.
Gas mileage was in the upper teens.I thought the quality was excellent.After 3 years there were no rattles or squeaks.When I was looking a few months back it came down in the end to the Porsche or another ML350..the Porsche edged it out in performance and handling and driver seat comfort.You appear to be a tall fellow,and the ML doesn't have anywhere near the legroom that the Porsche has.
