Whoever said they can't do over 65 is full of it. The few times I've
taken it down to the Cape (not towing), I've had to back off at times
because the speed will slowly creep up to 80 without you noticing it.
Also, they only *look* top heavy. They are not.

Just curious, how are they with the wind blowing?


They are affected, but I've never felt that it was unsafe. The worst
was driving over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge on a windy day. You just
need to pay a little more attention and drive for conditions.

Had an afterthought. If you want to feel unsafe in even mildly windy
days, you should try driving the '65 VW bus.
If someone sneezes in a car beside you with an open window, you go off
the road.

That I remember.

Do you think the Sprinter will survive the aftermath of the Chrysler
meltdown/rebirth? It certainly has a following in the commercial world.
