Forget about the Mercedes Diesel. Buy the new Dodge (Fiat) chassis and you will get 17MPG AND Gas. Most RVs in Europe are based on it.
You can't really compare the Promaster and the Mercedes Sprinter because they are not the same configuration or GVWR class. The Promaster shows promise as a small motorhome chassis but it's GVWR is only 9350 lbs. and the Sprinter is 11030. In the same sense you can't really accurately compare a Sprinter and an E450 because the E450 has much higher capacities.
The closest direct comparison will be the Transit cab chassis and the Transit comes up 500 lbs less on payload.
