    Dodge Sprinter

    you can have a decent sleeper bunk behind the seats, up to 50 inches seem to be the norm. But some have used the entire cargo area with a drop down bed or an air mattrest as a sleeping area becuase the width of the sleeper is around 64 inches and not enough room to streach out. I have seen one...

    Fuel Mileage

    I have a 1999 GMC diesel, 6.5 Turbo. I get 17 to 19 MPG depending on the road conditions. Weight does not seem to really affect it, loaded at 3000 lbs I got 17.5 and on the same road with 400 lbs I got 17. My mileage is lower than others; I drive my van at the speed limit, not at 55 or 60 as...
