This is my second Sprinter. #1 was totalled in a collision. This van needs more comfort, seats, tilt wheel, better visibility from front windows (pillar blocks view badly). However, 24mpg is amazing, turn radius, efficiency and convenience is unbeatable. I would like to have the standard transmission (seen in Europe). We use it for transporting show dogs, it works great. Best in class. I did have a mysterious fuel delivery problem - needed some repairs. The electric door locks are quirky and blows fuses sometimes. Overall, I would buy a third one in a heart beat. Although barring any more collisions, this should hold

Great space, great concept, but problems, problems, problems. Not worth the money. Any fuel savings have been dwarfed by maintainence costs. Lost motor to timing chain failure at 128000 miles. Not a happy camper.

I have just taken possesion of my Sprinter(from Freightliner, not Dodge) and am thrilled to report that it was worth the wait(6 months for custom order). This van is meant for work. It can be customized for just about any trade.

I purchased A new 2004 HC2500 Sprinter Van in August 04. I love the van, though I am having problems. The fuel injectors started leaking badly. That was fixed. Now the trans has started leaking. The driver's side wiper fell off the other day, and the auto lock on the driver's door has stopped working, and the seat belt adjuster has broken as well. The remote locking system is very poor. I would expect better from the folks at Benz. On the positive side, the van gets about 22-24 mpg. It is very roomy and comfortable to drive on long trips. It is very quiet for a cargo van.

Payload,fuel economy,comfort,life of vehicle. You do not need to be a rocket scientist to figure this one out.I have "WORN OUT" 3 Dodge Ram 2500 Maxi Vans with the 360 engine. Nothing against them, BUT there is NO comparison here. This is a Mercedes. The logo is every where. The key, the glass, the drivers seat base. The body style check out your International news to see it used as ambulances all over Europe.
