The Sprinter comes to Dodge by way of Mercedes-Benz, via Freightliner. It's easy to forget here in the States, but in the rest of the world, Mercedes-Benz is a leading manufacturer in the heavy duty truck market, making everything from semi trailer haulers to, well, Sprinters. The Sprinter first made its appearance in the U.S. as a Freightliner called the Sprinter, and was subsequently sold as a Dodge Sprinter after Daimler mergered Chrysler into submission. What it offers is obvious from one glance: height. The Sprinter is one tall mutha, and the new one is even taller, with vertical interior room ranging from 65 inches to a whopping 84 inches.
