I know this topic has been endlessly discussed over the years. However it's time for me to purchase a new van and I have a personal interest in renewing the debate.
The Sprinter van clearly provides more creature comforts, more cargo room, and good mileage as compared to Ford or Chevy.
I have run Ford diesel vans since starting in expediting, and have for the most part been happy. However lately my body has been asking for more space and comfort.
My question to the Sprinter owners out there is: Does the additional cargo capacity and presumably additional load opportunities really overcome the purchase price and higher maintenance costs the Sprinter has? And secondly, would you go the Sprinter route again?
Expediting has changed and so has the new Sprinter models.
Your input is valued and I thank you for your responses in advance.
Stay safe.
