    07 sprinters

    Confusing ain't it! The 07 2500 170" wheelbase and being wider and taller. I believe can not still be GVW 8550 especially with the V6 diesel or gas engine and the upgraded braking system and suspension. It must be getting between 9,000 to 9500? These are monster vans anyone buying one could be...
