Don't Buy a Mercedes Sprinter Van until you watch an honest perfectionist review Sprinter
What happens here
Josh begins discussing his 'dislikes' about the Sprinter van, starting with its performance on steep mountain climbs where it struggled to maintain 80 miles per hour, though it had no issue at 65-70 mph. He notes that the van is governed to a maximum speed of 85 mph. He then shows a cracked windshield, highlighting it as another disliked feature, and proceeds to discuss the air conditioning and heating controls. He points out a flaw where the system always blows defrost air regardless of settings, causing windows to fog up in humid conditions. He also mentions the rear air controls as a 'must-have' for a large van.
Goal: Detail the van's limitations in mountain climbing, speed governing, and frustrating climate control features.
