thanks for the input guys.
will send johnnymac a PM.
someone wrote on the Sprinter Forum that she got their Sprinter via a Costco car buying program.
something like $500 above invoice. need to check that out.
I'd still like to see a list of the options that folks are ordering for their Sprinters.
Maybe Dave G can share that info since he's the Sprinter dealer of the century.
I visited our local MBenz dealer and learned that they only have one sales guy that deals with the Sprinter line. Perhaps that's why the available sales person isn't always available. He wasn't there on a Sunday morning when I went. Not working 7 days a week. What a slacker. I'm sure over time more sales reps will be trained and onboard. Also learned that the dealer has to have two trained mechanics as part of the MBenz dealer requirements for selling Sprinters.
BTW - I just got back from a quick trip to San Diego (from LA) and I saw a phenomenal amount of Sprinters on the 405/5 freeways, heading north mostly on a Thursday. These were non FedEx ones. I take it they were mostly commercial use because I only saw one on the way back (Sunday). Spotting Sprinters on the road took some of the boredom out of the drive. We kind of make a game out of it like when we were kids, not that much has changed since then
