Yes, I was aware of the Econoline pickup, but never seen a Sprinter in such a way.

I had a 72 F100, 240 inline 6, or 300? Cant remember for sure. 8 ft bed, no power steering, no power brakes, no A/C. 3 on the tree. That truck would pull a house off its foundation. Painted it Grabber Blue.

They were great. Real trucks back then that you could haul things in including full sheets of plywood and still close the tailgate.

In my opinion, a pickup isnt a real truck unless it has an 8 ft bed on it.

I feel the same way. On top of that, if you want a truck, get a truck. Not an extension of your living room.
