What does Veeky Forums think of the Mercedes X class?

It's just a Nissan.

>Mercedes badge and interior
>proven Nissan platform
>buy used after warranty and you can take it to a Nissan dealer for most maintenance
What's the downside?

Initial cost

The next era of helping spot a badge whore.

why not just buy the nissan?

If Mercedes is gonna rebadge a pickup they should have at least picked a decent one

Why doesn’t Toyota do this with Lexus? It’s clear that there’s a market for $80,000+ Luxury trucks

>It’s clear that there’s a market for $80,000+ Luxury trucks

That market is mostly successful hillbilly contractors who still live near their childhood trailer-park buddies, and they take pride in only buying """"Domestic"""" (aka made in Mexico) so Lexus wouldn't fare too well.

Let the trophy wives buy it first, then. Since it's a Merc it'll lose half it's value in 2 years.
