there coming out with 170 " wheel base and gasoline engine and doing away with 5 cyl engine, and raising the roof to where a 6'4" person will be able to walk done the center and not hit his head
check some of back pieces that jeff wrote on them

The main problem with Sprinters is finding " authorized " service . Daimler/Chrysler is requiring owners to go to Dodge dealers with inexperienced technicians . Check the archives . A while back I posted the URL for a good Spinter site

which means someone 6'2" (like me)can wear shoes and not hit his hed(in theory anyway). there will be a 6 cyl diesel option desides gas.

i will repost this here.....a fella i met recently has an 8 passenger 2500. he is going to replace the std mb fuel filter with a goldenrod type filter so he can unscrew the filter housing and just replace the paper element. try www.mcmaster-carr.com or www.northerntool.com for units and pricing. should also work on a 6.6d-max.

I also read somewhere they are changing the GVWR. The 9990 has been replaced with a 10,140. So if you want to keep it under 10,001 you have to go with the 8550# as there is nothing else in betweent the 8550 and the 10,140. Thanks alot Dr Z.
