Hey guys,
First post here! I'm in the market for a sprinter. My business is going to start having me travel quite a bit... roughly 1,500 miles a month or so, plus occasionally I'll need to carry a bit of cargo with me.
This brings up the question. New or used? Frankly I'm the type of person who lives by the "Buy it once, and never have to guy again" idea. Yes, their expensive vehicles, but looks like reading through the threads that if their properly maintained, then you've got an engine good for the likes of 500k +.
Ryder trucks sells used Freightliner's. But, the average '07 sprinter w/ 200k miles costs about $25k. No idea how they've been serviced, or driven...
Any advice from you guys?
Chris
