    You might look at the Mercedes Sprinter reliability ratings.

    Is it the same exact engine+tranny ?
    I’ve got 2006 Dodge (x years) that rocks but I wanted to get something newer without breaking the bank. 
    The Freightliners are way cheaper on the market but I don’t find any reviews/reports/issues anywhere. 
    Edmunds is my last hope. 
    Thank you anyways !

    What I meant with my comment is that in those early years every single one of them was a MB underneath. Don’t know much after 2010

    There is only one Sprinter underneath, whether Dodge, Mercedes or Freightliner badge.

    Thank you. May i ask why nobody pays attention to the Freightliners ? Feels somehow like a one way trip buying those. 
    I checked one yesterday but I’m afraid to take the leap. I was aware of the MB flaws in the past, I’ve learned a lot with my van, but after newer models came up with all those sensors I lost track.

    Less distribution and sales for that nameplate. Everyone knows where to buy a Dodge or Mercedes.
