    @OscarSchneegans 6 лет назад

    I have a 12-passenger, 2012 Sprinter van, because I have nine kids. It's a great van. I would've liked 4x4, but that wasn't offered in the US until 2016. I also would've liked more gears (so the diesel V-6 would run at about 2,000 rpm at 75 mph), and better towing capacity. I look forward to learning how the new Sprinter compares.

  • @scottsmith6571

    I'd love to buy one of these in 4x4 as my next rig. I'm not sure I'll be able to afford it, the current short wheelbase mid-roof 4x4 with a few options is over 60k.

    so no more High Roof ? or is there an even higher roof on the UK?

  • @philtripe
    @philtripe 6 лет назад

    that "gritty" feeling stems from the fact when you are in the front seats your feet are like four iches from the front tire so its pretty hard to be isolated from that wheel which makes them very tiring to drive

    I do like the Sprinter van a lot. After all, it's kind of a baby cousin to the Unimog. As far as stop/start goes, I have kind of mixed feelings. I kind of like it, but I definitely understand why a lot of people don't. On the other hand, I don't really have that much experience with it.

  • @aaronw8606
    @aaronw8606 6 лет назад +15

    It's funny that, considering how much "van life" seems to be gaining ground here in the US, that we don't have direct access to the full gambit of MB Sprinter let alone the ability to order from all the variants.

    • @LouisSubearth
      @LouisSubearth 6 лет назад +1

      Aaron W The lack of options is because it would drive the price higher to offer all the variations stateside because they all have to comply with FMVSS, and not all will sell in volumes that will make profits.

    • @aaronw8606
      @aaronw8606 6 лет назад

      Agree in terms of "on-site" availability. I I was looking more to what Volvo is/was doing by only offering the V90 Cross Country in U.S. showrooms, but you could order the regular V90 directly from Sweden. Since the platform construction shouldn't really vary between the vans, MB could theoretically do the same thing. Over the life of the vans "generation(?)", MB could greatly widen their profit potential with the relatively "low cost" of FMVSS certification. It may take longer for me to get, but I get what I want and MB gets the sale.

    Count me as one who doesn't care for stop/start. I've got it on my JL Wrangler and I shut it off except when in line at a drive-through window. I'd probably use it more, but I'm keeping my Jeep for likley 20 years and I worry about the wear and tear on the starter.

    • @crazyhass84
      @crazyhass84 6 лет назад

      Principal Skinr u r an idiot. Don't u think they gave u a heavy duty. Starter?!

    • @mpsangha
      @mpsangha 6 лет назад

      They put in a heavy duty/higher amperage starter on the FCA vehicles. The thing is, they still use the same battery as a non start stop vehicle, so you'll be replacing it a lot more often.

    • @crazyhass84
      @crazyhass84 6 лет назад

      Manpreet Singh well they upgraded the battery to the newer glass mat type a few years ago in othe fca products and it lasts fine. I think u need to do more research vs being a worry wort.

    • @ALMX5DP
      @ALMX5DP 6 лет назад

      Andy Hass a few automakers are already experiencing premature starter deaths thought to be contributed by the auto start/stop features. Despite being "heavy duty" there is still a good amount of wear and tear that will likely make that starter a consumable (and more expensive as a result).

    • @crazyhass84
      @crazyhass84 6 лет назад

      Alan Bowers it won't male the starter more expensive. It will make it less because they will be making more. U have a 5 yr 100mi warranty so who gives a shit. Enjoy your vehicle and move on

    Bad points I think are 4 Cup holders on top of the dashboard so your drinks reflect in the windscreen and bottles and drinks stick up in front of the driver obstructing your vision ahead and get hot in the sun. Great idea.
    Put all your paperwork in the open compartments in front of the driver so they to all reflect in the windscreen to.
    No where to put a 2 litre bottle either.
    No grab handle to get in. Great when your doing multi drop driving all day so you have to grab the steering wheel to get in. I drive a works 314cdi rear wheel drive 6 speed manual gearbox lwb van in the uk. Does 29 to 32 mpg. Very low first gear have to immediately change to 2nd gear soon as the van is moving as revs rise quickly. Engine is nice and torquey though.short shift it is best

      That sounds like the Transit will have no problems getting the whole US van market (Ford keeps piling the options, while the others keep eliminating them):
      GM has really no competition (no word on a new gen Express that does include light-duty variants), Nissan's is just the old Armada SUV platform (when's BOTH Cummins TD's [I4 and V8[ coming to the NV's?) and Fiat's (supposed to be Ram's, but Chrysler had very little input on 'em) has proven to be an inferior product.
      That's the state of the full-sized cargo van market in NoAm: Transit by half-a-mile ahead...

    T1 - transporter 1 , best extra durable bus with no electronics at all except lights and heater fan , true commercial transport with no expensive care of it except engines (which could get 1000000 miles on it with no general repair needed ), still these old engines were many times cheaper in repair than new ones.
    And old sprinters were more durable against rust, new sprinters begin to rust next year after you bought it .

    On the 3.0 needs excess cover firewall inside to get to all the parts that will break. Also make the van with registration option from inside truck if needed to get out of limp mode . Put the turbo were you can service it not in back. Lost soooooo much money driving mine its ridiculous. Mercedes should rethink I will be glad to fly over to help them rethink then it's a great investment. Until then money pit.

    people that travel a lot say say away from the Sprinter van, the reason being crazy expensive if you need a repair. Stick with the big 3.

      Ram van is a Fiat Ducato, Ford Transit is a Euro Van which is assembled from kits made in Turkey. That just leaves Chevy/GMC van.
