Sprinters seem to still be stupidly expensive for a personal van unless they have elevenion-billinty miles on them. Hoping the Transit replacing the full Econoline range will result in less-premium used offerings...
Our work Sprinter is a 2004, high roof, 140" wheelbase, 106k miles. We scored it for less than $4k. It was a mechanical conteactor's van. It was a little rough around the edges, and very dirty. It also needed a new injector. We fixed that, had the windshield replaced, and cleaned it up. It's pretty awesome now.
I'm glad to see that Ford is bringing a smart design like this here.
