I have a 2016 Sprinter 4x4, bought new, still perfect now at 127,000 miles. The ScanGauge shows DEF at 25% so no emission problems any time soon. Average mpg over the last 24,000 miles=18.3. Never had a problem with it, only regular maintenance which is easy to do in my own driveway. Parts are not expensive but labor at the dealership is. I chose the Sprinter for being the only van with 4x4 at that time, otherwise I would have bought a Ford AWD for the cheaper and more accessible maintenance. Diesel engines are not popular in the US as personal vehicles but all heavy duty commercial/industrial engines are diesel for a reason. In Europe I saw several Sprinters with more than 1million km(620,000miles) still in use for commuting service.

The 2016 Sprinter 2.1 diesel I owned for three years from 70k to 103k required a new water at 75-80k. Would throw an engine code if it was started below freezing. Fixed within warranty. $1500 roughly. Apparently the tens to go out every 75k. Then… the diesels utilize a cp4 fuel pump. Google it to find out the nightmare of these. At 103k on a road trip 1000 miles away from home it started to throw a code. (Suggestion, if you own a sprinter own an obd2 reader and don’t travel on Saturday or Sundays as the Mercedes’ service departments are closed over a wknd.) The fuel pumps were utilized in many diesels, there are kits to deter catastrophic fuel system failure in trucks but not Mercedes. Dodge has actually acknowledged the major defect and issued a recall. Mercedes’ has not. The fuel pump disintegrates and disperses metal bits into the fuel system and you’re looking at a $16k-$20k repair. Enjoy your road trips. Buy a ford.

I couldn't tell by the info provided, was the wheelbase longer on the Sprinter or the overall truck length? Interior cargo volume would have been good info to have for the comparison. Sprinter looks better but Black looks better than white on vans. Most comparisons favor the Ford IMHO. Price, even with AWD, Powertrain, Number of dealerships for repairs, and the expected cost of repairs favor gas powertrains over diesel. Luxury dealerships labor usually more expensive as well. For the price difference I could finish out the interior of the Ford for Overlanding and have the complete pkg for the base price of the Sprinter.

Great video and comparison. I have been on the fence but I will stay away from the Sprinter unless you are in an area that has a dealer that is licenced to work on a sprinter. With a Ford, as long as it fits in the garage they can work on it. I'm heading into the market for an RV conversion so the likeliness of having a sprinter dealer in remote areas would be unlikely which could result in a lot bigger expense in an already pricy repair. I currently own a Transit passenger wagon and it has been super reliable so I am looking more at the Transit or Ram for the RV.

I would pick Transit, AWD beats 4x4 in crap weather/mud where 4x4 is just better for heavier loads. Also there is 3000 ford service centers across the states vs Mercedes 300. This means local shops can fix your transit vs going to a mercedes dealership everytime, and the price of parts is cheaper on the Transit side.

Diesel mechanics are hard to find, those that work on sprinters are harder. Availability of parts, cost of parts, cost of labor…. Transit all the way.. transit is taller on the inside, wider on the inside., And can be worked on anywhere.. parts are everywhere…. If you need a van as a daily income maker. Then anticipated downtime in a transit will be hours or days, sprinter will be days, weeks or months.. Transit is also a better drive.

Ford Transit... it's a no Brainerd from a service perspective unless you stay in a city all the time! Ford's can be serviced anywhere.

NOTE: Opening up the door to fuel it is actually pretty awesome. It keeps degenerates from being able to either steal your gas or mess with your ride. I wish all cars came with that design personally.

You kept repeating that the Mercedes has leather. It doesn't. Look at your window sticker under upholstery. Leatherette.

I would take the Transit. Diesel is 1/3 more expensive than gas, so fuel cost is awash.

Its a front wheel drive with a crappy Chrysler powertrain. Too bad, as it was designed with a small fuel efficient diesel in mind.

I would not recommend anybody with the van ever considering an EcoBoost because it's a turbo and it's known to not be Dependable but inside of a van is also a much bigger pain in the ass to work on because you would have to remove the engine from underneath the band in order to access the turbo EcoBoost is only known to go about 200,000 miles before you need to do major things like replaced turbos you need to take that into consideration not just the amount of horsepower you again but whether or not you actually want to have to buy a new fan every 150,000 miles because the EcoBoost is it going to ride this morning as you want to use it this video clearly the Sprinter van is a better buy because it has a diesel diesel engines are known to go at least 1.5 million miles and are designed to do 3 million miles

The door having to be open to fuel the vehicle is a poor mans lock, that is harder to lose the key for.

I like the Ford Transit. The longest wheelbase on the Ford is 148 " where the Mercedes-Benz is 170" wheelbase if it's like a friend of mine is you have to bring it to Mercedes because nobody else can service it.
