I was walking along Commercial St. in Portland the other day and a saw this brand new, all white, odd-but-cool looking panel van drive by. It was a Freightliner Sprinter. Which is a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Apologies if this is old news, but I wasn't aware these were available in the US. According to the website - they come in many flavors, but all notably have 4,000+ lbs cargo capacity, airbags and ABS, and a 22 MPG 5-cyl turbodiesel engine. Neat! Of course, I'm sure they carry a pretty hefty price too! Check out http://www.daimlerchrysler-vans.com/ for more info. Doug Fitz-Randolph Freeport, ME '90 Syncro |
