Mercedes Sprinter vs Ford E450 seeking opinions

Ed I very strongly suggest you go find a Ford based class C and you and your wife sit in the front seats to get a feel of the amount of legroom available. Just sold our 2005 Ford E350 and I have to say that the available legroom is very minimal for the driver and barely tolerable for the passenger. I'm only 5'9" and my wife is 5'. Give this some serious thought. The Sprinter that we will be receiving has very comfortable seating and ample legroom.
