The Mercedes GLK Test: Day 1

Click Here
img_66371This summer, Mercedes contacted us about a new SUV they were coming out with that’s going to be aimed at families looking for all the features and safety of a Mercedes but for a lower cost. As most of you know, I’m not one for fancy vehicles. In fact, I’m pretty content with the decade-old, but paid for, cars we drive now. But hey, it couldn’t hurt to hear more about the offer.

I found out that Mercedes has aggressively priced the new GLK to be competitive with many popular family vehicles out there. Starting at $33,900, it’s nearly $15,000 less than their next step up. That’s still a lot of money, but not as much as I thought when I looked at the cost of these comparable vehicles.

  • Toyota Sienna Limited – $35,665
  • Honda Odyssey Touring – $40,505
  • Chrysler Aspen $35,58
  • Chevy Tahoe $37,415
  • Subaru Tribeca Limited – $32,595

I decided to put the new GLK to the Clark test.

Today was delivery day. While I was out grocery shopping with the kids, who were so bad that a stranger offered to help me get them out of the store, the GLK arrived. Typical to my day, I didn’t get the chance to do anything but rush the kids around it on our way inside. I had to get my son ready for the bus that was on its way down the road, haul the groceries in and make lunch for our daughter who had somehow found “11″ on her scream volume.

When my husband got home from work I told him that I forgotten an ingredient for dinner and that we were out of diapers. A wide grin came over his face as he grabbed the keys to the GLK and said, “it’s ok, I’ll go get them.” Our son tagged along and upon their return I asked what he thought of the new car. He shouted “It’s awwwwesooome!” and rattled off every cool feature he could remember. Clearly my husband had enjoyed the diaper run more than he usually does.

  1. I think my honey would have taken a 3 hour diaper run, lol! Amen to decade-old, but paid for, cars – I hear ya on that!

  2. Well, now…you got my attention with that tweet! GREAT giveaway for a fabulous product review. Thanks!

    Isn’t this when blogging is so daggum FUN??

    :)

  3. Any car that can get my honey to run the errands might be worth it! How is the gas milage?

    Posted by Willo | February 2, 2009, 8:24 am
  4. The burning question… will you buy one? I appreciate mercedes attempt to reach the “family” market.

    Posted by babymedbasics | February 2, 2009, 8:28 am
  5. EDIT: Wilo- It gets around 23 miles per gallon. The 34 MPG I quoted before is for the diesel version in the UK. They have planned a special diesel version for the US that will get nearly 40 MPG however.

    Babymedbasics- I have a few more years on my old clunkers so I will hold out. I would love to buy a used one, if I could :)

  6. What a neat car! How fun for you to get to test one out. I’m sure it was terribly hard to send back ;)

    Posted by Malia | February 2, 2009, 8:36 am
  7. How funny… and cheap pricing for a Mercedes!

    Posted by Marissa | February 2, 2009, 8:39 am
  8. Saw your twiter on this, I would love that car, just not the gas bill on it!

    Posted by Leslie | February 2, 2009, 9:17 am
  9. Oh – I am all there….put me in for that gift card!

  10. How cool that you get to test such a great car! Even sweeter, since you didn’t have to pay for it! Enjoy it while you have it!

    Posted by Lynnae | February 2, 2009, 9:47 am
  11. of course it’s always been a dream of mine to drive a Mercedes. This one sounds like a good compromise in price.

    I could totally use that gift card too. Things are tight right now.

  14. OK, the price is out of my budget, but I have to admit I’m impressed, especially with the MPG.

    Posted by Lisa | February 2, 2009, 11:04 am
  15. Saw this on singlemomseeking. Love the car and would happily pay for the gas. Have fun!

  18. my father-in-law has a mercedes and i’m always blown away by their incredible service, let alone the vehicle itself . . . so if we ever get to a point where we could afford a $34,000 car we’ll definitely buy a mercedes . . . in the meantime would love a $50 gift card for groceries!

  19. I’m actually looking for a new vehicle as mine is almost dead. I’d love it if my hubby wanted to do a diaper run. Guess that’s incentive for a one of these, huh?

    Posted by Shelly | February 2, 2009, 12:19 pm
  20. Very sleek car. My husband would have fainted at the sight of this vehicle in our drive away. :) I would have never taken a second look at this car because of the price range, but honestly- it is not as bad as I thought it would be!

    Posted by Jessica | February 2, 2009, 12:20 pm
  21. wow. too cool. my husband would have done the same thing… although he probably would have said “hey hon, need any errands run?”

    Posted by lifeasamama | February 2, 2009, 12:27 pm
  22. What a fun opportunity, Amy! I bet you look great in that car, by the way.

    Posted by Alyssa @ Keeping the Kingdom First | February 2, 2009, 12:30 pm
  23. Sounds like a fun SUV. I still get mailers from Porsche and Mercedes but I’ve never taken advantage of their test drive offers. I guess I need to. It sounds like I’m missing out. :D

    Posted by Eathan | February 2, 2009, 12:34 pm
  24. To bad you aren’t giving one away!:) With number 3 on the way I’m sure my boys could destroy a beautiful car like that in no time!

    Posted by Heidi | February 2, 2009, 12:35 pm
  25. That’s a really nice looking car. Do you have to fill it with premium?

    Posted by Lori Z. | February 2, 2009, 12:41 pm
  26. I could see myself in one of those…

  27. What a fun giveaway and so fun to drive around a Mercedes.

    Posted by Jessica | February 2, 2009, 12:42 pm
  28. It sounds like a nice SUV with the family in mind! I’ve been so curious about them especially when I learned how they were priced compared to other SUVs.

    Posted by Dawn S | February 2, 2009, 12:46 pm
  29. I LOVE gift cards and you cannot beat a gift card you can use anywhere Visa is accepted. :) Thanks for the opportunity!

    Posted by Deanna | February 2, 2009, 12:50 pm
  30. What kind of head room do this car have in the front? I am tall myself (5′9″) and a lot of the SUV’s don’t have the head room I would like.

    Posted by Heather | February 2, 2009, 12:56 pm
  31. My husband would have thought he had died and gone to heaven if he got home one day to find this in the driveway :) I’d love to hear about how fuel efficient it is.

    Posted by Jennae @ Green Your Decor | February 2, 2009, 12:56 pm
  32. I think I’d have left hubby home with the kids to start dinner so I could take the first test drive! =)

    Posted by chele | February 2, 2009, 12:57 pm
  33. Wow! What a great opportunity. It looks like a beautiful car.

    Posted by Wendy | February 2, 2009, 12:57 pm
  34. OMG! I want to test drive the car. I have a family and hubby is a work at home dad. I can’t wait to hear about all the features. I think hubby is trying to get me into a minivan but I refuse to do it. Argh minivans!!!! No offense to those who have one, I just don’t want one.

  36. Have fun in this awesome vehicle! Now you just need to find enough companies to let you test drive cars 365 days a year!

    Posted by Brenda | February 2, 2009, 1:28 pm
  37. I am pretty confident that I’ll never own a new or used Mercedes. I’m jealous that you at least get to ride in one.

    Posted by ellen cunningham | February 2, 2009, 1:30 pm
  38. Congrats on getting the test drive! That’s an awesome looking car. I guess I would have fun going on a diaper run too if I was driving that car :)

    Posted by JMom | February 2, 2009, 1:31 pm
  39. I’m shocked at the price, in a good way. Not that I can afford one at any price right now, but I truly thought they were sooooooo much more in price.

    Posted by alemos | February 2, 2009, 1:36 pm
  40. Wow…what a great review! Thanks for the chance!

    Posted by Alaina | February 2, 2009, 1:39 pm
  41. What about putting 3 full size car seats in this model? How is the car insurance??

    Posted by Amanda | February 2, 2009, 1:42 pm
  42. I came over from http://www.singlemommyhood.com to enter for the gift card but looking around, I think I’m hooked on your site! I’ll definitely be following you now!

    Posted by Wondermom | February 2, 2009, 1:43 pm
  43. MPG isn’t bad at all. Our Jeep gets 14, but we like it and can’t afford a new one. The Mercedes looks cool!

    Posted by Sydney | February 2, 2009, 1:44 pm
  44. I’ll do the errands myself if I had this car!! Way too expensive for us, though-

    Posted by Lori | February 2, 2009, 1:51 pm
  45. Wow, that sounds like a lot of fun!

  47. What fun! I’m positive my husband would run all of our errands if he could take a new Mercedes each time. :) Enjoy!

    Posted by Kelli | February 2, 2009, 2:03 pm
  48. Wow! Enjoy the car!

    Posted by Anita | February 2, 2009, 2:14 pm
  49. Sounds fab! I’d love to win a new car, heck who wouldn’t?

    Posted by Jenn | February 2, 2009, 2:15 pm
  50. Amanda- I don’t know about fitting three full size car seats. This is a smaller SUV. I could comfortably fit my two seats, but you would have to probably stick your own seats in there to see if they would fit comfortably.

    You would also have to check with your own insurance company as to the price on this. I think it is moderately priced though if you are comparing this against a minivan, but the car seat will probably be your biggest factor :)

    Alemos- That is exactly how I felt about the price. I was really shocked in a good way too especially when doing a price comparison among other cars that we would consider to be more reasonable.

    Thanks, everyone, for this feedback!

    Posted by Amy | February 2, 2009, 2:16 pm
  51. Wow, that gets much better mileage than my Highlander, and it’s a hybrid! Hope you enjoy your test driving!

    Posted by Sara | February 2, 2009, 2:17 pm
  52. I’d happily go get diapers and groceries in this car!

    Posted by Dina | February 2, 2009, 2:19 pm
  53. It was great to read your review. We own Odysseys, but would love something sportier.

    Posted by Carole | February 2, 2009, 2:26 pm
  54. I would definitely like to hear about the mileage on this and how it compares to those other similar cars…

    Posted by laura | February 2, 2009, 2:26 pm
  55. It all sounds so exciting…..

    Posted by pj | February 2, 2009, 2:31 pm
  56. This is a good looking ride. Impressive that it’s so affordable – I don’t associate Mercedes with affordability. Does it get good gas mileage?

    Thanks!

  60. Any chance it has a soundproof screen like limos do? I’ve been waiting for a family vehicle that does… it would help when scream volume reaches 11.

    Posted by Marin | February 2, 2009, 3:00 pm
  61. Wow, Amy!

    How fun that you got to drive a brand new car for a week! And, great that you get to give some gift cards away!

    Posted by Monica | February 2, 2009, 3:10 pm
  62. You are one lucky gal! What do you mean by “scream volume reaches 11″? At first I thought you were referring to your daughter screaming, but now am thinking you’re referring to a speaker volume level for a DVD player?

    Posted by Kristie | February 2, 2009, 3:10 pm
  63. What a great opportunity. I can’t wait to read more about it!

  65. Yes, the scream volume was definitely on my daughter that day :) That is exactly what I was referring to :)

  74. What an incredible opportunity, how can I get in on that? Have fun driving around in a Mercedes, my husband and I would have to arm wrestle to see who got to drive it.

    Posted by Jessica | February 2, 2009, 4:37 pm

  78. Awesome!

    Posted by Stephanie Gattman | February 2, 2009, 4:55 pm
  79. Our next vehicle will be an SUV of some type and $33,000, while being a little high for a family targeted vehicle, isn’t a ridiculous price. especially for a Mercedes.

    Posted by Maria | February 2, 2009, 5:05 pm
  81. I traded in my Dodge Caravan in Barney-purple in 2003 for an SUV. With four kids, I needed something roomy that didn’t look like a mom-mobile. I wish this Mercedes was available then. I’ve heard great things about Mercedes over the years but I figured it was way out of my lowly price range…not so at this price.
    Blog on…I want to know more!

    Posted by Michelle | February 2, 2009, 5:08 pm
  82. Wow, do you think you could just hand your husband the grocery and errand lists for the next week with the new car?

    If so the cars well worth it because it’s magic.

  119. Looking forward to reading your posts on this. My husband is a huge car buff (and would be so thrilled if we got a chance to try out something like this for a week! So jealous) He will be going to the Chicago Auto Show this month and I’m sure will look at this. Interested in how it is for getting the kids in and out vs. a minivan. Also, how it does in the nasty winter weather, if you get any during your test week.

  170. Amy,
    This SUV is so beautiful. The only thing I would be scared of, is not wanting to give it back after the 5 days !!! It is an awesome opportunity your getting. Thank you for telling us about the Mercedes. I cannot wait to hear more.

    Posted by PlusSizeMommy | February 2, 2009, 7:48 pm
  171. The car seat question…we had two car seats and it was very roomy. It *might* be able to fit three, but you would need to try your seats in it to see if that would work. It depends on the arms of the seat. It doesn’t have a middle row of seating like some other SUV’s. I hope that helps!

    Posted by Amy | February 2, 2009, 7:53 pm
  172. Oooh. Good work!

  277. I don’t need a vehicle like this, but my son might be interested. I will be watching the reviews.

    Posted by Lois Shores | February 2, 2009, 11:24 pm
  278. That is so great that you get to test drive that car for a whole week! Do they give you a even better offer (besides the reg. price) on the car since you go to try it?
    That is also so nice of the stranger to help you with your groceries, I love when people do nice things like that for you, it makes the day better, and puts a smile on your face, like your giveaway opportunity. (:
    and about the 11 on the scream volume… kids grow up so fast.. I miss those days sometimes when their scream volumes were at 5

  284. How fun that you get to test drive a new car. Did you actually get to drive it yet?! Not big enough for our family, but it is a pretty car (& cheaper than my van brand-new!). Hmmm, surely I could find a way to stuff a couple more kids somewhere……!

  288. After driving a Toyota Prius, enjoying the great gas milage (especially when the price was over $4.00 a gal.) it would be VERY hard for me to give that up but it also would be great to drive a “luxury” vehicle again – even if it was for only a month. In these tough economic times you have to make a choice and sometimes sacrifices have to be made – so we traded our roomy, luxurious Mercury Marquis XL in for a hybrid. I’m not sorry we did but it’s like comparing a cubic zirconia to a diamond!

    Posted by J | February 3, 2009, 9:09 am
  345. One bonus with luxury cars is that you get a loaner car when its in for service at the dealer. That is a must for this busy mom who cannot be without a car for a few hours, much less a day! They even transfer my carseats for me from my car to the loaner. We have acuras and volvos. Never had a mercedes but I am sure their customer service is top notch too!

  403. How much do you love this perk of your blog???

    I am glad that Mercedes decided that more than just the top 10% of average Americans deserve a well built, safe, vehicle with great features. I love these crossover type vehicles myself, not an SUV, not a car. I would LOVE to have one, but I will definitely settle for the gift card!

  532. What a great opportunity. I like the Mercedes brand but just can’t see spending so much on something that devalues so fast. Although, the price is better than I expected. I would like to see stats on how much it costs to own the car over time (maintenance and repairs etc.) and how much some of the “extra” features are.

  553. How nice to hear about your “New Car”. The way the economy has been going, it is refreshing to hear a Cinderella story! You know safety is most important when it comes to our families. So good luck and “Enjoy the Ride”………. :)

  586. How lucky you are to drive this magnificent machine for a week! The only downfall is having to give it back and return to reality! I’m not sure 1 week would cut it for me – I’d want at least a month. Couldn’t you negotiate for an extension?

  608. Any car that can fit 4 kids, their stuff, and groceries is worth the buy! We put miles, miles, and more miles on our vehicles just driving kids around and trying to get to their activities. It is about time someone made a SUV that helps with fuel costs!!!

    Posted by Suzanne | February 3, 2009, 7:19 pm
  634. I dont’ know much about vehicles but it seems as if the vehicle must be very comfortable and apparently must not be to much of a family vehicle although it fits a family because your husband wanted to drive it. I mean my husband likes fast vehicles and would never drive anything that was to much like a minivan. So this vehicle sounds great. I’d love to go checkone out one day.

  646. I learned something new today. That you can purchase a Mercedes for under $40,000 ~! Nice :)
    Do you think you could talk them into having a giveaway for a Mercedes??!! lol A girl can dream can’t she. Give it a hard run and let us know how it handles in the snow and ice. I live in Maine and a good winter vehicle is a must. I did find out that a NEON is NOT the car to buy living in Maine. It’s really embarrassing to have to be pulled out of your own driveway every time we get a foot of snow here (which is often) Enjoy your ride ~! Thanks for Sharing :)

And may be trading in very soon! Would love to afford one. Love the giveaway too…. could certainly use the $ in these tough times. TIA

  682. We had a Mercedes sedan for 23 years. I gave it to my nephew at that point who is still driving it two years later. My late husband only drove Mercedes. I’m from Detroit and my dad worked for GM, nobody drove Mercedes where I’m from! I never thought I’d be comfortable in what I thought was an snooty car. Was I ever wrong, a Mercedes is the best car investment you could ever make!

    Posted by Sherrie | February 4, 2009, 8:06 am
  698. Not sure if my first comment posted so I’m trying again. I live here in Atlanta and although I drive a big jacked up truck….probably not near as great gas mileage as that car… but I wouldn’t mind some of the snow you took a picture of! :)

    Posted by AJ | February 4, 2009, 2:05 pm
  732. I guess my questions are:
    reliability-it would be hell if it was always in the shop.
    gas mileage-even worse if it got under 20mpg over all.
    any special added premium insurance-wise because it is a luxury car?
    I bet the interior is gorgeous! You lucky gal!

    Posted by Stacy | February 4, 2009, 2:30 pm
  734. I can’t even imagine a vehicle with DVD players. It would be nice for long trips but I wouldn’t use it too often because my kids see enough tv as it is. I need to save that for times I’m trying to get stuff done, like cooking dinner! :)

    Love the look of the Mercedes SUV – not so much the price.
    THANKS for the opportunity to win!

  753. This is a super giveaway and a super car. If I was in the market for a luxury car and could afford it, I would probably buy the Mercedes over other luxury vehicles out there. Their craftsmanship and reliability are well documented.

  769. I am interested to see the new Mercedes Benz small car that is coming to the U.S.A. A Honda Civic like Mercedes would be a great addition to their North American portfolio. I feel americans are ready for small vehicles with ultra high MPG and clean low emission diesel technologies.
