Freightliner 3500 Dually

I have a 2010 freightliner Sprinter 3500 dual rear wheels 170 WB Cargo van I have almost 220,000 miles on it. I love this vehicle it runs great. I have had to replace some sensors and other parts but most of it is traditional maintenance that happens over the nine-year period. I use mine for a home remodeling business. I find my fuel economy around 18 to 22 miles per gallon. There are definitely some hiccups with sensors Etc, but I don't find it any worse than my Ford 2011 F350 Diesel. I will say driving on the highway at around 70 75 miles per hour during a windy day you can really get blown around. But I think that would be the case for any vehicle that large.

I have to change the EGR valve every 2 to 3 weeks. I have to clean it then it goes bad and I have to order another one. I paid $20,000 for the van. I have put over 8000 in it to keep it running never will Mercedez vehicle you can't even get parts you have to order the parts so if you're broke down inside the road, don't go to an auto parts store because they're not gonna have the parts for you. You have to order them and then 3 to 4 days later maybe a week you'll get the parts and then you have to work on it because every time you talk to the Mercedes dealership there 2 to 3 months out also they're saying that the 2013 Mercedes-Benz they will not work on it because it is too old of a model of van to work on, so please don't make a mistake like I did and buy Mercedes sprinter van the worst vehicle I have ever known. I have to work on it constantly.

After buying this vehicle new off the dealer lot. after only 6 days on the road I experianced a complete power loss to the vechicle. was 200 mi from home. roadside assistance took 4hrs to approve me for 100% $$ towing back to my dealeer in Reading PA. They had the vehicle all day and still could not find the source of the problem..If they can not find the source of the problem do they expect me to take back the vehicle and wonder when and where it will happen again!..I think not. Will update as soon as I find out ..
