I manage a service in southern Missouri with 6 ambulances in our fleet. Two of the six are E350 Econoline vans with the problamatic 6.0 liter turbodiesel. We use the two for non-critical long distant transfers. They combine for over 180,000 miles/year.
I've been researching a Medix, from Elkhart, Indiana, 2006 Mercedes Benz Sprinter with a 142x86x68 box to replace the vans.
So far I've heard only good about the 2006 Sprinter chassis. My research so far has been at the administrative/mechanical level.
What I'm looking for now are field staff comments, (Allthough managment/mechanical comments may contribute to paint a complete picture in this thread). Do you like the driving and handling, do they ride smooth etc.
Thank You,
Jim
