Generally the more freight you can carry the better. That much is pretty clear. When I had a Sprinter, did I make more than I would have w/ a van? Yea, I probably did. By that I mean my paychecks were a bit bigger w/ that thing than they would have been w/ my Ford.
But I also had a $700 payment & $300 insurance. I figured I had to make $1600-1700 more per month to make it worth it. The reason for the extra $6-700 is because you need fuel, maintenance, & such to make that $1,000 for the payment & insurance.
Are you an Amazon? I stand up in the back of my Ford van and pull my pants on all the time... bent at the waist, but standing nonetheless ....
fired at you from my Droideka
Insurance rates vary on how much you insured it for, where ya live, etc..
But it could cost the same or less to insure a 50k Sprinter with a Bloomfield Hills, MI address as opposed to a 12k C/V with a Detroit address...however put them both in the same mailing address and the 50k would be more...location location location.If your driving a $50,000 Sprinter and someone else is driving a $12,000 cargo van there will be a difference in what your insurance is.
