Most MercedesBenz GClass owners never even think about taking their SUVs offroad, instead relegating them to a life of mallcrawling and valet parking at highend restaurants. But even though most will never see a speck of dirt, the Gwagen is famously capable offroad — so Edmunds’ Brian Wong got behind the wheel of a G 550 with the Professional package and headed to the trails alongside our Ford Bronco to see if the G could keep up. In this comparison test, we put both the G 550 and the Bronco through multiple tests to gauge their offroad abilities.
