Do any of you work out of a Dodge Sprinter?

I found a fantastic deal on a 2004 diesel Sprinter with 34k miles for $18k. I've been working out of a F150 Supercrew and a steel trailer for months.

I tote around my own water, generator, pressure washer and all the other stuff you guys would. I would love to work out of this Sprinter. Being able to stand upright while fiddling around inside and keeping ALL of my supplies in one area would be great. Not only that but I think the image of my company would only prosper from it.

Do any of you work out of or have any experience with one?

I think my mpg would be better and the idea of having a reliable 400+k mile motor is appealing.

Thoughts???

Go for it. Mount a swing out sun cover and you can detail under it. You'll never want a trailer after working out of one of these things. The ultimate for any mobile operation. Put a huge advertisement (wrap) on it and you'll hit it big.

A couple of friends have the early Sprinters...they love them. Our refrigerator repair guy has an '07 with real fancy graphics on it. The vehicle has a great (professional) appearance.

That is an absolutely awesome idea. I'd have never thought of it!

I would love to have one. But my Astro is paid for and I just don't like payments.
When it goes I will be looking at one of these.
