I bought another AMG. This time it's a Legendary SUV that started the SUV horsepower and performance wars we know today. This is a budget AMG you can pick up for around $5,000, it features a bulletproof engine, transmission, and drivetrain and is very capable off-road. In this series, I'm going to make it even more capable to get it ready for a big off-road rally. This is a build I've wanted to bring you all for a long time so I hope you enjoy it as much as me.

I’m a big fan, think I’ve watched all your videos! I’ve been hoping you would get an ML55, as I had one for 4 years. I just sold it to a friend and picked up a CL55. He just had the gauges stop working although everything else in the cluster works just fine. Any help you can provide by way of cheep advice would be much appreciated! He is stoked about this series and to be honest I’m jealous! Lol. Thanks for all you do!

It would be a shame to get it all kitted out and still have traction issues. That being said, this drivetrain is certainly more reliable than that of a land rover or a cayenne...
