Actually, they aren't anymore--I se Sprinters, Freightliner FL60's, & International 4700's more and more often lately.

I saw a Chevy C4500 in Boston yesterday.

Ford Sucks! Chevy Rules!

did you happen to notice that on the chevy forum they get excited when they beat anything else?and not only that theres also people in there that have been beat by fords and/or are worried of us (lightning,5.4s and such)! they also have a forum for maintnence notice on how we dont need one specifically for that? and us over here at ford have the better site in my opinion(it's not a dark room where you hope not to be seen).
I guess.
buy a chevy,buy the best, drive a mile walk the rest

Those Freightliner made Sprinters are cool. I understand they are making them for Dodge and Dodge has discontinued their full size vans in lieu of it. They use a Mercedes diesel I think. We use full size vans for our mobile mechanics and I think the tall headroom and better mileage of the diesel would be a great fit in our business. I've even seen them with duallies in the 1 ton version. I think Fed-Ex has purchased thousands of them with the Freightliner logo on them.

Actually, the Sprinter IS a Mercedes. In the rest of the world, it's the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.

Jarlaxle,

Are you saying the Sprinter is made by Mercedes Benz? Are they making it for Freightliner?

ROFLMAO, I like it. I'm a moderator at a Flight Sim forum and there's a few characters over there that I'd be willing to change their names as well.

Freightliner is Mercedes commercial, they merged a few years back - the FL series is a cabover Mercedes with a hood.

I dunno if they're building them in Germany, but I know that the rest of the world calls it the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.

hey, maybe we could all get together on something here. let's find out where he lives, track him down, hook chains with his dear chevy, and take turns pulling it to each others house. whoever pulls him gets to sign his truck. how cool would that be.
