122K on my 2017 Sprinter 170E and no def issues as of yet. No idling, pure diesel to NO more than 5% Biodiesel and always topping off the def tank with Peak Def fulid at every fuel stop to every other fuel stop! Do what MB tells you to do and you shouldn't have a problem so soon. This is my...

Nothing in the old archives? Nothing for sale in the "Trucks For Sale " category?

You could go to Lowes and buy the insulated styrofoam with a high rating value and cut it and put it into the walls. Also you can buy a big roll of that silver stuff that we all use to put in the front windshield to keep the dash cooler. Put that over the styrofoam and it's cheap. You could...

Brian at Espar told me that Howes while it does keep the fuel from gelling up, it puts a flim over/around the fuel filter. He recommends Powerservice.

Boy this thread went sideways, LOL

Whether you drive a Sprinter, Str8 or T/T you need a Espar out here. You can get by with similar products but I prefer Espar. In my Sprinter I've got the D4. I thought about a D5 but Brian said it was too much for a small space .

True, gas isnt as hot as diesel but it's not a huge difference and it comes from the tank instead of a different source. I know your not going to change over but in the long run it's better.

Pro3500, why not convert it to a gas espar?

Moot, I've been told Brian recommends Powerservice and not Howes fuel treatment.

There was a 4 cylinder in the classified section for sale. It's got 32K on it I think. Its fairly new looking.

Thanks Scott!

It should be the same engine as before. I've heard that the ones that's got one like it alot and has plenty of power. I would think the turbo would work a bit more. But should be less emissions with smaller engine. That's what the dealer said.

I would think so. I've pass by the Freightliner dealership in Little Rock and seen Freightliner Sprinters in the lot. I think the only Freightliner dealerships that don't sell them is the ones that Penske bought. Just seen this, Peach State Freightliner has 2017 Sprinters on lot! Also Tom...

That's strange cause at the Benz dealership they told me it should be. I'll be going back there in a few thousand miles and I'll find out again. Thanks!

True on the Expeditors but I think it could go 50/50 on the local to small business. I do agree with what you said about the F Series thing and GM thing as well. Just have to wait and see!

I can tell you this, mid to late 2019 when the Gas Sprinter comes out, look out!

I've got Two Honda 2000 watt generators with a 6 gallon extended can. It's a duel line that feeds into both generators. With a Honda 2000 watt you don't have to have it above the generators cause they got a built in fuel pump. I bought the 6 gallon extended can at Northern Tool. The single...

I don't know if I would do that. Mainly the fuel mileage and its seems to be smaller place to sleep than my Sprinter.

HMMMM? LOL
