The G-Wagen - the most off-road capable truck that nobody ever off-roads.
triscuitbiscuit the most off-road capable truck is Land cruiser but most expensive off-road vehicle is g wagon
@@amersiraz7455 Land cruiser is not even a real car. It's an Asian car. The G-Wagen is a proper German machine.
AlexanderMichelson lol wft is that
@@amersiraz7455 A G500 4x4² is definitely more capable off-road than a Land Cruiser.
Wrong lots of people offroad them.
There’s just something about the older Benz’s. Such understated styling
Just like the old body style in range rover looks wayyyy better!
they look the same...lmao
dude the amg/base model of mercedes 2007-2008 s classes are actually really not bad especially for their price
@@brotato654 same?? new looks round and gay,no more gangster
@@alilmfao yeah and more reliable
The old one looks so good, even the damage on the bodywork look like battle scars.
it looks way more serious in my opinion
G wagon facts : This was first commissioned by the Shah of Iran, who was at the time a significant shareholder of Mercedes.
Regarding many articles on the internet yes ! The genesis for the G-Wagon came out of an unrelated but massive 20,000-truck order from the Shah of Iran in the 1970s. A significant shareholder in Mercedes at the time, the Shah's order also stood for a tempting deal. To fulfill the Shah's requirements, the carmaker required external help in its production phase.
This led to Mercedes collaborating with Steyr-Daimler-Puch, a military equipment manufacturer based in Austria. SDP built famous war machines like the Pinzgauer, a military transport with available 6-wheel drive systems. Mercedes further extended this collaboration when the Shah suggested that the vehicle be built as an all-wheel-drive SUV for military use in his empire
@@EngiNetion you can still get em like that
Very well said, I have two Gs 2014 and 2004 I prefer those over the new ones. For me the new one is bit two round on the front.
@@kkam7984 what engine does your 2004 have, I am looking to get a 2004 400cdi and wanted to know how the reliability and comfort is on these?
As a Sergent in RDAF (Royal Danish Air Force) we used these a lot for recon.
However....This was in 1990, and they were more like a tractor. Very very agricultural and basic. With a 5 cylinder non turbo diesel engine at about 100hp, the speed was also very agricultural. The upside was, that you could repair them with a brick and a piece of wire.
Very cool insight btw, thank you for this!
The bricks are now digital and the wire is 4nm… and they are very expensive… 😱

I’m just imagining james sitting alone in the other G just being like:
“And I’m James!”
I say it when I'm alone at my desk to confirm my identity and keep myself in check
James Engelsman How about an episode where you introduce yourself first man? It’s about time don’t you think? ;)
I picture them saying "I'm James, and I'm James" so that it doesn't matter which one is second in the final cut
Mado BA I’m prevented from doing that by a severe inferiority complex
@@jamesengelsman9369 Holy shit, you are real!
Mercedes spent A LOT Of money getting those on- wing indicator lights EU compliant for the face lift model. They wanted to keep the traditional look , which was very difficult with the new crash regs. That's why there's no screws anymore.
AhEmGee the screws are also gone because the old indicators got stolen a lot. Is legit 1 minute work to steal them.
Also the front headlight were stolen a lot
@@rv9990 likely the main reason why the screws are gone. Nobody wants to file an insurance claim for a head lamp, but they also don't want to pay $1800 each for replacements plus labor.
@@rv9990 only in shit hole place like la.
Land Rover didn't bother their arse with the Defender and just "brought a new one out"... Praise be to Mercedes.
When you can’t even afford the cheapest model
Sell blood
@@Hchris101 what 😭😭
@@slime6905 buy car
if i could afford one i still would not buy one, way way way overpriced.....that is a fact...
Trade narcotics
I love how the 2020 model front very clearly lifts up each time James accelerates
The intros gets me everytime 😂😂😂
Same
brilliant. that was gangsta. and nothing drives as crappy as them lol....it's like slamming a what?!
that's what my like's for 😂😂😂
Mm
No cap
“Militia leaders dream” might just be the best quote towards a G class ever
Eclipzo77 not really, they are a nightmare
@@kpsig a dream when you're riding a G class as a Generalissimo or in the name of allah with an AK-47 sticking out the window.
@@XSDX3R0 if your a middle east guy you use a Toyota truck simple as that
Right?! lol
@@ghostplayzbusters well the regular soldiers do, the leaders don’t
I’ve wanted a G Wagen for my whole life! Legit since I was 10 and seeing this makes me so happy to see more detail
You should ignore any reservations then and get one.
Just do it. You only live once and the car lasts forever as long as you maintain it properly (oil changes, etc.). I bought one new back in 2015 and (knock on wood) no mechanical issues in over 6 years.
@@ChachiMogo g wagons are expensive af
No way??? How is it now? If I get an older one to use as an offroad rig am I taking a risk potentially getting stuck out in the middle of nowhere with it? @@ChachiMogo
@@Blue-op6qv They are but they last and have an aura about them that's unmatched. Best luxury SUV for the money, hands down!
Watching this give me million reasons to double my hustle .
Mercedes knocked it out of the park with the redesign. I was worried they would mess it up (*cough* LAND ROVER DISCOVERY!), but they nailed it.
Right! What were they thinking with the new discovery (loaf) ?
Mercedes does a far better job in keeping their line with g-wagen than land rover, the new defender is a good suv but nothing like the iconic defender.
Its a beautiful vehicle... too bad its only for people with fuck you money...who dont mind throwing away cash because of horrible fuel economy.
New one looks good but the old one is much better
JRLM yup, count me in! The gas consumption is not that bad, for the G550. You’ll average 18-20 l/100 in the city. About 14-15 on the highway.
I just love how G Wagens do wheelies everytime you foot the accelerator
I forgot about amg prices being so cheap when used. So when I saw an amg g class for 37,000 usd I was like "There has to be something wrong". Then I realized it had good maintenance, no major accidents, and had under 100,000 miles. It is truly a bargain
but it is old, i like the new g wagons
@@vambat3523 Underneath they are literally the same chassis.
@@joelstatosky1817 Yeah you are right but i like the grill on the newer models
@@vambat3523 Replace the grill
@@joelstatosky1817 how? also can i replace the interior with the 2020 version even though its gonna cost so much money
8:38 love that reference to carwow
Mat would be proud
Hallelujah to that
They need to shove a stick up the tailpipes
@@triscuitbiscuit Pls don't tell me that they have a "Throttle House Stick of Truth"
20:03 damn that transition was smooth as hell

Smoove 😂 yeah smooth as fuck

Here’s a comment: I love the film inspired editing and direction. Like cutting back and forth on hand gestures to opposite shots, abiding to the 180 degree rule -really love that for a car channel makes you guys stand out
The I have the same exact g55. It’s a great car, I’ve had it for a year, got the brakes done and the door locks today, was 1600 usd..... It’s not exactly cheap but it’s fast, it’s old but gets all kinds of stares and I do off road it regularly
The Schöckl is our home mountain here in Graz, sometimes i see the "Erlkönig" G's driving around there.
Here’s the hometown of first G th-cam.com/video/SsC8ivnyYYQ/w-d-xo.html
Кахабер Цхададзе nobody understands this bs, the home of the G-Class is here in Austria, Graz and it’s developed on the Schöckl. period.

@Кахабер Цхададзе how delusional are you?🤦🏼♂️😂
the G-Class (Puch G) is developed by Mercedes and Steyr Daimler Puch (now Magna Steyer Austria), manly by Magna, so this car is austrian and nothing else and that's it's home too, to be exactly it's Graz and the Schöckl
Omaze is the new Raid: Shadow Legends
Both you can play for free or pay to increase odds of winning
@@aperturemichelle However you have more odds of winning the lotto than actually winning on Omaze,
@@joanpi0 is Omaze a scam?
omaze.pissedconsumer.com/review.html?starRating=1
@@NidalMorra they run a an organization in which they provide less than 10 % for charities yet they say they are non profit. They do not tell anyone how much money they are receiving and their marketing is targetted to make you think you can win, without twoling you the real odds like a lotto tickets, in fact odds to win an omaze draft is billions to 1, compared to a mega millions ticket which is like 500 million to 1.
There's a saying in the 4X4community: "one gets two types of 4X4 owners - the one's that owns a Gelandewagen, and the one's that WANTS to own a Gelandewagen". (The G-Wagon was also the very 1st 4X4 to offer from and rear diff-locks to the civilian market - something Land Rover haven't figured out yet...)
Anyway, great test!!! Looking forward to part 2 of this test going off-road ;-)
Regards from South Africa.
The older design just looks better in my view
I think I've laid hands on everything in the current lineup. The G-Wagen just feels two cuts above everything else. You can tell they put real effort into the little things and held themselves to a high standard. A lot has to do with how things on the body/interior feel when you interact with them. It really gives you the impression of solidity that you hear so often about.
How to start the Wednesday the right way: with a throttlehouse video.
well its night time for me so.........
It’s Thursday actually
its wednseday night time for me
It’s wednesday today 😃😂.
Exterior of the older one looks way better but the interior is so much nicer in the new one. Also gotta love depreciation.
nah the new one looks better
The new one looks Miles better to not sure what you are one sir
I gotta agree, the old one just looks right, the new one looks too polished
@@pedroloboantunes4017 Ohhhhh my god What? LOL 😂
How does the new one look better inside? It's all generic and digital. Could be a Kia.
Awesome 🔥🔥 My g63 is literally spec’d the same way, only that yours has a red interior and I have a brush bar up front
These are the comparisons I have in my head every day
Realistic Dream Cars vs Dream Cars
Best intros in this segment of videos hands down 👌🏽
I love their commitment to skits in the beginning, these guys rock
Bro that slap had me dying 😂
These guys are ausome and really funny. Love the sense of humor they put in to thier car reviews, really differentiates them from the others
Awesome*
I love the G-Class. I want an old G500 but it's hard to justify spending that much and then ripping off all the claddings for a lift and offroad accessories.
I always find myself chuckling while watching these guys! 🙏
When the front lifts while accelerating 🔥🔥
Great video, love the comparison videos!!! Please do one comparing the Lexus LS models, I think that would be great. Also I think the wood trim steering wheel looks great in the truck, but the red leather is also gorgeous!!
They did an LS one not too long ago.
I could listen to James and Thomas just converse about the cars all day long. Of course I love the intros and the informative aspect, but the personalities and their humor really shines when they're just acting themselves. Love these guys, love the channel
lol
I enjoyed this G wagon comparison thoroughly! Great review!
this was extremely informative and entertaining. thanks, guys!
They say you can’t feel videos, but I felt that one.
You guys are getting better with every new video! Nevermind the cars. BTW, do more new vs old comparisons.
Or newer/less expensive vs older/more expensive at the time. That's where the fun's at.
Armenians living in Glendale: **Heavy breathing intensifies**
Hahahahahaha
ha! this made me laugh!!
bro anyone who lives in LA knows just how underrated this comment really is hahahahha
Ara I want Benz
My whole family lives in Glendale we Mexicans 😂
You guys have a brilliant dynamic!
You deserve an award for the transition at 20:04 WOW!!
Dude the mad flex the new g wagons got when you put the foot down is amazing
This was great! Please do a comparison with old/new Porsche Macan. Much love from Oakland, California!

For a second there, based on the thumbnail I thought that this was a comparison video of different filing cabinets.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Doug DeMuro I see

they both filing cabinets... just new one a little nicer and cost more and eating your expense for the rest of ownership
You boys are hilarious. Enjoyed the banter thoroughly. Keep up the good work!
Just get the old g55 and update/modify it in to the new present feature and upgrades
I guess you could say that this video slaps
G, E and S class have thier Signature door closing sound 😊
Great channel guys! Keep up the great work! You just earned a subscriber!! 👍🏻🤙🏻
Excellent comparison guys! I really enjoyed the video.
Personally like the exterior of the old one more. Especially the lights. Or maybe it's just the bumper, which the one you could win also has. Anyways, they are nice :).
The dutch Marechaussee Police also uses them. (the new once If I'm correct).
Thanks for the video : ) !
20 seconds through the video and i am like, "holy fish!!! that slap was 100% real."
You guys are absolutely adorable!! Even though I will never buy most of the cars you test you are super fun to watch! 👍🏻🙌🏻
Not yet!! (may the economy be forever in your favor )
In Germany we never say G Wagen it sounds stupid. We say G Klasse
Love your works! ♥️
It's a hallmark of good reviewers that you can get me to watch a video about cars I don't care about AT ALL just because I enjoy the banter.
*I love these old vs new comparisons you guys do*
But I like the old one way more in this case
Your intro just made me subscribe oh and I’m in love with the G Wagon.
Mercedes in general has a ton of electric problems that start happening when the vehicle gets old. A lot of the upgrades though, with the exception of the engine, from the old gwagon to the new one are really easy to put inside the old g wagon for little cost. It might be better to get the old one. Put in some nice upgrades, learn about your car and go from there.
People who buy G-wagon's aren't the ones who are tinkering on their cars like with an old Civic ;)
Nah
@@ivanandreevich8568 I tinker with my G Wagen like I did with my Honda
@@ivanandreevich8568 I work on my 2012 G.
For me this borders on Grand Tour/old Top Gear goodness. Pay attention to the videography and camera angles these guys are next level.
James and Thomas!!! Best duo automotive journalists and entertainers.
Those intros are hilarious.
I owned a 1987 isuzu trooper I got a grill off a different year model truck and put it on my 87 that gave it the round headlight g wagon look after I put the hood emblem and off road grill bumper guard. It looked really sweet and was capable also.
Is it just me or does the new G wagon look naked without the grill on the front? 🤔 maybe it’s just my OCD
It looks terrible in my opinion
You don't have OCD
I think you arent allowed the grill in some countries... I think so.
The Darkness, It Consumes Me facts. Mfs love claiming a debalitating disease like saying I’m annoyed by the lights because I have mental retardation. Like wtf? Mfs say anything thinking they’re clever
Gotta have the grill
Loving the videos, especially the used vs new ones like these!
38s into the video, already loving it😍
You guys are entertaining! LOL Thanks for the great content.
Never knew videos of comparing cars could be so entertaining
Dude the intro I swear 😂😂😂 i watched it a dozen times still cant get a hold of myself
Please make a video on the all new merecedes s class vs the oldest sclass
I really enjoy 😉 you guys are funny 😄 my question is is there any G Wagon that is V6
Can you do a video on Mercedes G class vs Daimler Puch G class, I really would want to know the differences
Best car review i had ever seen.. It was a wheelie though.
You've had a G-class tandem and didn't do any off-road!?
🥺
Thank's for another great review.
Keep it up!
I was thinking the same thing, but Merc might have told them they couldn't.
No matter what 'year' the G is the force to be reckoned
The driving experience in the old one sounds like when you rent one of those U-hauls and try to move on your own.
Loved the intro, dudes
Old one beat the new one in sound 100%! And that supercharger sound🤤
That whine 😍
Dude you guys have great reviews .... but your humor is a step above other reviewers. Keep it up!
Westerns ask your selves why media blinding you and hypnotising you to not seeing the truth of Islam, because it's against porn, alcohol, gambling, drugs, nudity and indecent dress, bank interests, LGBTQ, and genders pronouns issue ,even pedophilia are now promoted by Netflix and other networks, the titans who benefit from these things own the media and the real solid giant wall blocking their way and ruining their plans is Islam, and you are their market, all what they want is to keep you their slaves their clients and market, they don't care for you after that if you going to the hell (Literally), anyways In case that your loyalty is for the truth not your desire, watch blogging theology channel.,..,.,
@@Alserany I'm sorry, I'm into winning, not whining. Better luck elsewhere, but hey thanks for the TED talk. ❤️
I like the older one, becasue the interior looks more rugged, simple, and easy to clean. Thats good for offroading
That was definitely "The G-smack class"
👍👍👍✊
Boi i thought i was first but nvm love you guys anyways the skits are great keep it up guys.
Recently I've been in a maybach 2018 s650 and I was astonished with the Kricking of the dashboard
That supercharged 55 was a beast of an engine.
that g63 will develop either Piston slap or Timing issues.
You really should reach out to the Canadian Forces (somehow) and put one of the militarized G-wagon (also dubbed "wolf") against a civilian one in off road conditions.
Doesn’t the military sell old unequipped military vehicles to civilians? They do here in Germany so maybe in Canada too
@@t-bone9239 yes they do but only with decomissioned vehicles. Our g-wagon are still active duty.
I just love how the English bloke is always narrating the details of the more expensive ancestor 😂
What kind of maintenance issues does the older one have (besides the broken seat control and the SOS malfunction)?
Yaaayyy I found the video with the slap in your intro 🔥👀😎
4:40 Orange/yellow Aux lights are much easier on the eyes and light up stuff without messing with your night vision.
4:19 sounds exactly like Owen Wilson “wow”
3:25 - that car was built in my home town. you got a real treat there ;)
That was the best intro to any video yet.
Confession time, I typically watch your videos for the ridiculous intros, but the car reviews are a nice bonus.
Just the way the G63 stands on its rear tires is just hilarious
I had a Brabus tubed G500 (styling & engine) in early 2000’s. I miss it. I’m now looking for an older diesel.
I loved how you nearly popped a wheelie !
Wish me luck in lottery. 😀 I got this. Fan from Philippines here.
