I'm thinking I'm gonna invest in one of the foldable cots but hinging it to the wall sounds like a pretty efficient use of space how much weight can that support though?

The legs of the bed will touch the floor so you won't have a problem.

I think the camp cots are rated for like 250-300 lbs...you just have to check the specs on the one you want. The pragma is unreal..like 1200 or 1600 or something.

Good deal, you must be impressing them. It will give you a chance to study some ideas and be ready for the new one.

Well I really do hope I'm impressing them A. Blair has actually just decided to trade older sprinters before a set mileage to reduce down time due to service issues and since my van is running at 380k I'm hoping ill be able to sqeeze a little better mpg out of a new one.

All I know is the basics of fuel mileage like easy on the pedal, slow down, etc. There are plenty of guys like Turtle, OVM, and Xiggi that are very knowledgeable about Sprinters so if you do a search you might find a thread on it already or try a new thread if you still have questions. One of the sponsors here, Airtabs has claims of better fuel mileage which users say is true but the biggest benefit seems to be the improved handling of the vehicle. Just keep in mind that any money laid out for fuel savings should have a reasonable payback on it.

Define "tight spot". If your definition of "tight spot" includes the word "money", you're getting into the wrong business, even as a company driver.
