Traitor going for the Italian :D Yes I know will you forgive me:bow: Ben.
But they do have a proper truck chassis and those campers are top heavy same as the US ones pushing it on a 3.5 Tonne 3500 class body unless you go for the five tonne with H/D suspension and the 616 CDi capable of hauling six tonne, but its the same engine as the 416 they have as to the two that were offered in 316 and 416 156 HP CDi engines
Our US Friends were not offered the class, 4500 6000 Sprinters. the end result is well documented in most US forums.But I don't think they have woken up to it yet.

Yep Fiat is only targeting the Motorhome market its an interesting move that will probably help their growth (it already has :().

I want more VW Motorhomes :(

Maybe VW should build old LT and market it as cheap alternative ???

Ben the Crafters are about mostly hire and drive like blitz and Billabong hire and drive, different market for VW Plenty down in Tass from the mainland NSW plated mostly doing the ferry down to Bruny Island
Or up in the Kakadu with the tourists thing, DOING ART AND... feeding crock's, now TAKE A LOOK AT THE JAPANESE TOURIST READY FOR A HIGH DIVE, STRAIGHT INTO THE MOUTH OF A CROC,
But with the local end , my state Crafters just arrived, the dealer has no clue but Iveco do Mercs are fleet and government Ford is post and Go

:rad: Thanks. We've had it a year-and-a-half, have 14,500 miles, and plan another 9,300 this Summer.

As I write that I think, "getting a lot of miles isn't the point". Right. But sometimes it takes driving a lot of miles to get where you want to go.
