We (the Red Cross) just bought a Sprinter for our disaster work. This thing is sweet. I stand 6'2 and need the extra leg and head room. This truck's got both. This is the first vehicle I've EVER been in where putting the seat all the way back puts me too far away from the steering wheel. I can stand up in the back just fine as well. She runs smooth and will get on it if I slam the pedal down.

I'm very impressed.
If/when we end up replacing our Ford E-350, I'd love to look into the Sprinter. We really can't run a Type I or III in our town due to one section with very narrow, winding roads, but I bet a Sprinter would fit and give us a lot more room than what we currently have.

They're not real common out here yet. I think AMR runs a couple of them locally, but that's about it.
