Besides in press photos, will anyone ever go off-roading in the Mercedes GLK?

Theoretically? Absolutely. Mercedes put the GLK through the same rigorous tests that its ML went through. That said, the only off-roading the GLK is likely to see is the tailgating field outside your local college football stadium. It certainly will handle winter driving well with the 4Matic all-wheel drive system, and even if you don't live in a state with snow, all-wheel drive is helpful in wet driving and even on dry roads. Consider, too, that the 4Matic system only adds on 145 pounds to the weight of the GLK, doing little to compromise fuel economy.
