I was at Van Compass this past Friday and got the opportunity to drive Rob's lifted red Sprinter. All I can say is IMPRESSIVE. It drove and felt much better than I expected, and the view from a couple of inches higher is much better! Now I've got something else to consider...
Seems like that might be too tall for someone with a highroof and a rack. Would be concerned with traversing off-camber slopes. Looks like the track might be a bit wider, so that could offset the higher center of mass.
