my sprinter had a location above the overhead console. it was a single din. i bought a president radio with front speaker. it fit perfect. antenna was mounted on passenger fender. bracket fit between fender and hood. it worked great there

I had a 08 Sprinter extended. I did local delivery. I was paid by the stop. I got 4 pallets in it if I turn two of them on narrow side. it can be done. I would not want to drive cross country with the van that full, but often went couple to 300 miles. I was empty coming back.

where in MS? im near Memphis, there seems to be a need for box truck runs from the amazon warehouses there. I run a sprinter so not much help on any contacts though

that is not true now and may not have been before. my STA number/qualification is mine. I drive and tender at airports for multiple carriers. they all accept my number. i use their IAC form signed by me when i drop off. its just another form with the airbills, manifest, ect...
