I am contemplating a purchase of a used Dodge or Freightliner Sprinter Van
for my business. I have heard claims of 24 mpg with the 5 cyl. Mercedes
diesel they come equipped with. I am planning on using it as a camper and
towing a 5000 lb tandem cargo trailer with it (actually a 7500lb loaded to
5000 lbs.). I really like the fact you can stand up in one of these vans.
Does anyone have any real world experience towing with one of these rigs?

I, also wanted a Sprinter until...a bud of mine that works for Dodge told me
not to. They are the biggest Sprinter dealer in Oh. He said: Lots of
electrical problems and no two seem to have the same harness. The seem to
have a lot of other problems and people have brought them back at
gunpoint...literally. What does "more vertical miles than horizontal miles"
mean? They do look cool though. I got a 1 ton Ford extended and am
thrilled with it.
