have killed the gas powered box van market.
As well they should. I chatted with an owner
of several vans (and one Sprinter) at the pump
once. He owned the business and loved the Sprinter
'cause of the 25MPG it got even though loaded.
He drove that
Yes no doubt it's a great little commercial vehicle, as it was intended
to be. But even the smallest ones I've seen look too big (particularly
too tall) for what most families/soccer moms might want. I can
imagine there are many parking garages that a Sprinter would not go
into.

Being commercial, they are exempt from mileage ratings from the
gummit. That is the first statement I have heard about the fuel
consumption. SWMBO is not averse to a Sprinter, but I know it would
have to have windows down the sides. With the ripoff prices of

They used to have both a standard height version and a walk-in heigth
version. You could configure one with windows, different seating options,
etc. on-line. I've never seen a passenger model on the road though - only
the tall cargo models.

I saw two matched Sprinters with windows and fancy paint, headed
toward Mobile a couple of weeks ago. These were more like an airport
shuttle, maybe 20-24 passenger, very long. My guess is that they are
casino shuttles. If a casino owned them, normally the casino is

Wow, over 60K for a Sprinter on closeout? My fully loaded 2 year leftover

of 2007! The similarly equipped 10 passenger 07 high roof van we tested
earlier that summer was 41K. The only passenger van on the lot when we

All the used ones near here on CL are cargo/commercial configurations
most with over 200K miles already. I don't think I've ever seen a
passenger configuration for sale, and very rarely on the road. I have
seen one or two that are in use as shuttles.
