Gretel, as in Gretel in the Grimm's fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel"?

Her name is....? Sprinter! It's a '06 leftover 10 passenger van, brilliant silver metallic with gray cloth interior. My dad and I tested a new '07 model a few weeks ago, so we decided to check out one of the two '06's left on the lot. The inline 5 cyl engine is a bit louder than the V6 which replaced it, but the front end styling, plusher interior and solid feel of the '06 won me over. Of course, the $2K savings helped too! I'm planning to bring her back to her Mercedes roots with the emblam package. She sure is a lot taller than the Dodge Cummins pickup with step-in height to match, but it should be the perfect setup. If the need should arise to cary something a bit dirty, the rubber/vinyl floor will hose down nicely. She's going to cart us and 8 of our teammates to the ferry terminal in Port Angeles, WA en route to the Victoria BC Dragon Boat Festival. Hopefully, she'll get good fuel mileage, but I'm not expecting anything spectacular since she will only have just over 1000 miles under her belt. All that's needed is a receiver hitch, running boards and, yes, a name!
