2018 sprinter passenger van for sale update#

excellent storage capacity inside the van. excellent gas mileage for such a large vehicle finally a USB connection so I can plug in my iphone pass-through cabin so that a parent can get back and forth to help the kids on trips. great side mirrors with blind spot mirrors. the crosswind assist is definitely a nice feature that has made driving this on the highway much nicer compared to our 2012 model. With the roof height it is ideal for getting the kids' coats off and buckled in their car seats heats up quickly in the winter with the auxiliary heater. the HID headlights are wonderful for night visibility comfortable impact-absorbing front seats. We still love it! We just went to IKEA and could haul everything without having to take out any seats. Had a failure of the auxiliary heaters that was thankfully repaired under warranty, otherwise would have cost a couple thousand dollars. 34,000 miles in and the van has been great. It worked great even when having to pass in the ice and snow and held the van stable even though our snow tires are put away for the season.Ĥ/2017 update. We had 3 hours of pure ice highways to contend with and had to leave the 4x4/AWD system engaged on the highway all the way south to Indianapolis.

Update 4/2016: We just completed another trip from Michigan to Alabama and had to leave with a freak April snow storm. It is definitely far from perfect, but still the best available. We drove Chevy express vans and they were horrible! This is the best van available for this size family. We have 8 children, so our family vehicle options are very limited. The 4x4 (which is actually an AWD system that can be engaged or disengaged) is only available with the 6 cyl engine. With the 4x4 this is a true go-anywhere vehicle! By the way, this is … a 6 cylinder model, but Edmunds would give that option for writing the review. With 2wd there is so much torque coming from the turbodiesel that even with Blizzak snow tires we had trouble getting out. We needed the 4x4 as we live on a hill that gets icy and snowy in the winter. We sold our 2012 Mercedes Sprinter, which we loved, for a 2015 Sprinter 4x4.
