The more a Sprinter is driven, the more reliable it will be.
I have a 2004 Sprinter with about 360,000 miles on it right now, and I wouldn't hesitate to drive across the country in it next weekend (needs an oil change and the ECU, SKREEM immobilizer, and passenger door handle/lock are removed right now, shipped to Oregon for cutting and coding of keys, since my driver lost the last key). No, its not an RV, but it is regularly laden to capacity with freight.
