Depends what you want to tow. I have about 1500 OCCC and that leaves 4000 to tow but I only tow a bit under 3000 with my Tracker.
Fuel economy (not towing) is around 15. Pulling the toad knocks off about 1.5 MPG.
Power is comparable to my 94 460 E350 RV.
The cab is way better than a Ford. Lots of room since there's no engine in there with you. Passenger side has lots of foot room.
If you do your own maintenance the Sprinter is much easier to work on than a Ford. Lots of room under the hood. Open the hood and the oil filter is right there in the front. Air filter in center with fuel filter right under it. Spark plugs...oh, wait a minute. Cabin air filter right there too. You can actually get to the belts. There is so much room under the hood that some people have put the hydraulic package for HWH levelers in there.
