Ditto. I tried finding ratings on MBUSA to no avail. Anyone towing?

I installed a Draw-Tite receiver hitch on my R and the hitch has a maximum tongue weight rating of 350 lbs. I only intend to use the hitch for a bicycyle rack so this is not an issue with me. While I have little doubt that any model "R" could pull a reasonable trailer, the Draw-Tite hitch is a "bolt-on" and the "R" is not a "Body on Frame". I would be very cautious when it comes to towing because of concern of the hitch separating/pulling away from the body.

Is the ML or GL a body on frame?
