Curious how many miles are on folks sprinters and what heavy maintenance you've had to do to keep it rolling.

I can truthfully say it now, got you beat, and mileage, I'm sitting at 606,000. And the old girls gave me and Kamal no problems other than a heater blower motor , tensioner pulley ,and a windshield wiper arm , and windshield wiper transmission assembly
