Speaking of which.. Tell me about your Sprinter.. I saw them listed
from 14,000 to 100,000 in a quick search, I suppose I must have missed
somethig but I was in a hurry. I am looking to trade my Blazer in for
something I can use as a hauler for a couple of bikes. What kind of
gas mileage do you get in yours? Not crossposted...

Rowdy Mouse Racing, looking for hauler version 2.0

I assume you are looking for something you can eat/sleep in as well.
Otherwise, why not a simple trailer?

But, to answer your question, our Sprinter ... set up as a mini RV by
Pleasure-Way ... gets a solid 20-21 mpg on the highway doing 65-70 mph.
Slightly less (18-19 mpg) *towing a trailer. * It's the 2005 model, 170-inch
(long) wheelbase with the 5 cylinder diesel. * Still has less than 4000
miles on it. *We rarely use it, but Mrs.E. refuses to even think of selling
it because she thinks it's "cute".

Nope, not looking to buy yours but I am looking into more "full size"
vans. As to a hauler, I would rather not have to pull a trailer if
possible but still want two rows of seats and real doors, not a hatch
on the back. Can you stand up in those things if you are say, 5'7"?
Just wondering, but the gas mileage sounds better than I expected. Of
course yours sounds nice, does it have a kickin' a 8 track and shag
carpet on the ceiling, I always thought the waves in the carpet as the
wind went over it was cool
