As expected, the engine generator and more batteries found their way into the Chevies, probably based on Campskunk's testing and use? I would be inclined to idle the Chevy gas engine before the Sprinter, so that is a good thing, but I still wouldn't want to run it all day to get AC. For cool climates, perfect. 205 watts of solar and 400AH of batteries (maybe 440) would cover most things. I wonder if they have the compressor frig also? I would think they would.

Sounds like they used the Ranger higher roof, but still put in the drop floor to get more headroom. Wouldn't matter to us short folks, but most are bigger than we are, so that should make it more appealing to many folks.

Perhaps the imminent death of the Chevy models is premature.
