On The Road 12/20: 2020 Mercedes Benz G 63 SUV
By: Peter Perrotta There was a time a few years back when – as the saying goes – your local Mercedes dealership in the U.S. literally couldn’t give their G wagons away. I know this for a fact, because I sold them for six years. The dealerships would get one or two G 550’s or…

By Pete Perrotta My mission was quite simple. As the rain pelted down this one fine Saturday my wife proclaimed, “I’m not driving in this weather today.” Translation: I was being nominated to take her and my mother-in-law grocery shopping in the 2020 Subaru Outback Limited XT.
