"Trendy"? LOL! They have been excellent transport and work vehicles since
introduced all around the world since the mid-90's. If they were so 'bad',
do you think Mercedes would still be building and selling millions around
the world? Odd how most 'problems' are in the US... ask our own Cris
Torlasco about Sprinter reliability, he rents out a whole fleet of huge
Sprinter campers: andeanroads.com

That's ok though, I'll keep on making my roadtrips with zero worries while
wondering what's wrong with the occasional Vanagon I see off the side of the
road or on the flatbed. ;)
