Dodge Sprinter - The Multipurpose Van

[noplugs]

With only minor changes for 2008, the Sprinter competes with the full size Ford and Dodge vans but appears to lead the pack in interior space and maneuverability. One of its features gained from the Mercedes days is stability control, no doubt useful for a vehicle that can reach 9 ft tall. There are three models to choose from depending on your needs.
