I do And I like it,thought about going to a van don't know it i can handle it .

I tried a sprinter for about two months. Couldn't wait to get out of it after a month. :eek: Its rough to be in one, unless you have a sleeper conversion put in it. And the cheap ones are rough to sleep on. All it is a thick foam you are laying on. I woke up every time with my body aching. Plus, if its real cold or hot outside, the truck doesn't push enough heat or cold air to the back of the cargo area, if that is where you are sleeping. This last winter, November and December is when I tried to do the Sprinter and it got cold as hell and the sprinter couldn't keep it warm back there. So, there I was all bundled up in about 3 shirts, 2 sweat pants and jeans, 3 pair of socks trying to stay warm.

If you are going to do this, I would suggest talking with the other CV and Sprinter drivers on what they do on this situation. And see if this is what you want to do. This is why I'm back in a straight truck with my wife doing this a team.
