The thing looks exactly how every G-wagen feels. It’s weird to think about, but the regular G really isn’t that huge—its footprint is almost identical to that of a current Jeep Cherokee. A new Camry is nine inches longer than a G. But because the Benz was styled with a plumb bob, it has this psychological massiveness to it. So the 4x4²’s four-foot seating position and choo-choo-train wheels feel logical. They make the truck as big as you always assumed it must’ve been.
I was amazed that all that altitude and tire didn't ruin the way it drives. It feels almost exactly like a standard G-wagen on the road—the added track width seems to nearly equal out the increase in height. Same for the steering, which is as bad as ever. Drivers under 40 will think the steering is broken. My mother, who drove solid-axle Jeeps her entire parental career, would find it immediately familiar.Cheka www.oktilli.com for more
