| 2012 | 4dr Wagon 302-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Much better gas mileage than a crossover. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I have been averaging 26 MPG (indicated) in mixed suburban and highway driving, which I think is pretty good. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I am getting 35 MPG in city driving. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Diesel delivers 40+ MPG at reasonable (70 mpg) highway speed, around 29 mpg around town. Diesel is quiet and powerful. Acceleration is awesome. Average 575 miles per tank. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 201hp 3.2L I6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Best large traditional vechicle with diesel dependablty and mileage. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 201hp 3.2L I6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I get 35 MPG at 70 MPH. This is hard to beat with any hybrid or gas engine |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 201hp 3.2L I6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Fuel cost now down to $2,33 a gallon, not too far from regular gas.This brings cost per mile way down. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 302-horsepower 5.0L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
25 mpg consistant on the highway |

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The 4matic full time all wheel drive means the absolute best of 100% highway cruising only gave me 27 MPG. In the city I usually average under 15 MPG. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I average 16mpg around town. Not good. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 469hp 5.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Average 17 MPG. 10 MPG when having fun! |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 469hp 5.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
While my AMG was an iron beast something is wrong when so many gas station attendants know you on a first name basis. With the cost of premium fuel and an average of 14 mpg it was time to say goodbye. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 302-horsepower 5.0L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
E500 is very bad on gas |
