| RE: Is a t1n 2006 Dodge Sprinter a reliable choice for a full-time camper conversion? | 12Relevance | 5 years ago | Ria | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| So regardless of my price point what vehicle would you recommend? I’m currently in my 2016 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk, would it be worth just sticking with that car instead? | |||||

| well that depends on the engine/transmission/wheelbase etc. I'd say about 20 - 22 mpg on average. The engines seem gutless to me though. For $25k it's going to have high mileage or hidden issues. $25k is not realistic for the requirements you listed, honestly. | |||||

| It just gets filled once you fill it up and then start it up you have to keep rechecking the fluid level to make sure it's right though | |||||

| It should be near the front of your engine and if you are standing facing it, it will probably be under a shield to the left side. I think lol. Be very VERY carful if you need to mess with the actual glow plugs. If you have one shatter in the cylinder you are in for a world of hurt. | |||||

| Yeah that's probably the truth. My only gripe is at the way internet sales are going, I'm better off going new with a warranty. The price difference is 10's of thousands. I wishfully wanted to hear that with a van well taken care for at 125... it had a lot of life left. I realize it's a fantasy lol. | |||||

| If you plan to keep the thing for forever, I highly recommend you check out FCP Euro. Everything on their website is backed by a lifetime warranty, which includes wear items like brakes and oil. It will save you hundreds down the line. From one Euro owner to another 👍 | |||||

| I think it's a good idea to look for newer. 2018 and up with less than 100k | |||||

| I've noticed some of those quirks you mentioned (mainly those silly crank seats) when I took a 2017 144 on a 2 day road trip. For me the biggest question is when considering high-top van options, there doesn't seem to be great alternatives and hardly anything else that is diesel. The prices seem to be holding up now, but curious if used is a death sentence in terms of reliability. Right now it's like buying a used Tacoma, where maybe it's worth buying new because the price gap seems much smaller than on other used vehicle prices. Appreciate your advice. With this used rig, I'd be within warranty for the bluetec recall, but everything else I'd be hoping to learn how to do myself. At 125k I am hoping to confirm if treated well, it can run for another 300k+. | |||||

| it's a European vehicle, so expect none of the N.American luxuries. Out of reach cup holders. Stupid twist dial seats etc. etc. Do they last.. sure, depending how deep your pockets are. They're not exactly established in N.America yet. Long term reliability unproven. Still kinda new.... Parts are expensive and not widely available. The price.. is high as you expect for Mercedes. To buy, and to maintain. Over-engineered everything. Hundreds of computers for every little function. Other than that... pretty capable I guess. It's not like you have a lot of choices in the high-top segment. | |||||
