Strong and reliable mechanical foundation with a comfortable, functional build. After buying and building it out five years ago, my wife and I lived in it full time for over a year then kept it as an adventure van. It has been amazingly reliable and is a great rig that we’re sad to let go of. Selling only because we’re moving overseas.

𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐞𝐬
• Windshield crack in lower passenger corner (not giant but it is visible; repaired a year ago and hasn’t cracked more)

• Some paint blemishes and touched-up areas to body panels (we kept the imperfections to have a low-key look; stealth camped regularly without ever getting “the knock”)
This T1N Sprinter is labeled as a Dodge Sprinter. But the Mercedes Sprinter, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, or Freightliner Sprinter are all essentially the same T1N Sprinters. This 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟒 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐎𝐌𝟔𝟒𝟕 𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞, a very well known engine. It’s slightly better than the earlier T1N models from 2001–2003 with the OM612 version.
