Sprinter

The Dodge Sprinter is a direct rebrand of Mercedes’ and hides a much more interesting origin story than you might have expected. Indeed, the Dodge Sprinter was created to avoid a taxation law introduced in 1964. Mercedes ships the parts, and Dodge and Freightliner assemble them, avoiding a 25 percent tariff on light trucks imported into the US.

The unorthodox situation isn’t half-bad since Sprinters are some of the most popular vans in Europe. However, they tend to be more complicated than an average van, primarily due to German engineering. As a result, if you plan on repairing one, start with a Dodge Sprinter manual. They will provide you with the manufacturer’s recommended procedure to troubleshoot and repair almost any issue, including step-by-step instructions, wiring diagrams, and exploded view illustrations.

All in all, f you really want to get the most out of your van, you definitely need to get your hands on a Dodge Sprinter manual first!
