I would lease G63 AMG 6x6 . Thats the new beast. Range rovers are horrible in long term maintenance.

The new Ranges look pretty nice - I would definitely choose that over a box car - I'm an SUV guy. I would just have to cross my fingers as far as repairs.

I'm dreaming about a Cayenne GTS though, despite its mediocre performance. So sexy.

MB - I always see these as classier Hondas in the way they drive. Yes, it's an AMG... so a super fast Honda.

What's a lease payment on a $500-600k truck?!?!? The American top gear a season or two ago had a new Range Rover Supercharged Sport and Tanner got the thing to start malfunctioning trying to set it up for a race. He had to shut it off and luckily it kinda started working again. Was terrible advertising for a vehicle known for problems.

Mercedes, because it will spend more time on the road than in the shop.

That being said, Range Rovers are beautiful inside and out.

Honestly they are both nice trucks inside and out but I'd take the Mercedes Benz because of better reliability.

I know The Jeep SRT isn't considered a "worthy" enough competitor but I'd take it over both of them.

I'm pretty sure Bang for the Buck wise the SVT Ford Raptor would give the G63 AMG 6x6 a Run for it's money.

The Merc 6x6 is the spiritual successor to this:

Mercedes drive like Hondas? I guess you don't know anything about luxury or quality...............

This is a funny poll. I voted for the Range...because I'm not a Latin American drug kingpin or a member of the House of Saud. Although if I had $140K for vehicles burning a hole in my pocket, I would not actually purchase either one.

Instead, (if spending all of it) I'd fill up my garage with these:

For a 3-car garage:
a) 2015 LandCruiser
b) 1966 Mustang GT Fastback (fully restored)
c) 2015 Acura TL-SH AWD

For a 2-car garage:
a) 2015 Mercedes ML63 AMG
b) the 1966 Mustang GT Fastback

The G63 beats the RR just for the sound it makes by revving that AMG engine combined with those side exhaust pipes.
