Saw a Dodge Sprinter 2500 today!!!

I saw a Dodge Sprinter in my home town today!!

I was coming out of the local coffee shop and the guy who owned it was taking stuff out of it. So I approached him and talked quite awhile abt it.

Man that things is cool!!!!

Id almost consider buying one and making it my only, main vehicle

Here is link to a review on it

A friend of mine has one for him company.. He went ahead and opted for the gray market Benz grill that bolts right on, had it all debadged and painted Mercedes Silver... then put the Mercedes G-500 wheels on it. People always ack him how he managed to get the Mercedes Sprinter into the US.. He just tells them Dodge has them. the thing is big! it can really hold a lot... pretty nice ride too, with the benz wheels on it.

Outfit I used to work for runs them as company vehicles. Lots of gear inside and ladder rack on the roof. HUGE PITA to get the ladders off of them. Parts are RIDICULOUS in price. 1600 bucks for a front hub and brakes. The A/C is a JOKE. Even with the work wall in them they barely keep the front cab cool. And NOISY in the cab.

but out here in montana you either have 4 wheel drive or you stay home all winter. i tried working out of a 2 wheel drive van last winter and found myself on the phone more with tow trucks than with customers. i moved over to a 4x4 ranger with a utility bed but that was just to small.

That trailer must be fun to pull on a snotty road in the winter. We have a couple of 2 wheel Dodge vans w/studded snows all around for upstate NY.

im finding that im a better service tech than i am a business owner. although ive owned businesses before, until i grow to the point of hiring employees im having a lot of trouble working all day in the field, and then all night in the office.

i wont be able to pull it this winter. im hoping to get a utilty bed on my ram before this winter, then i can just use the trailer for hauling condensing units/furnaces on installations and just run the truck on service calls.

thanks for the link, im sure ill use it!
