Retail on the Sprinter conversion is $71,344. As nice as the MB Diesel might be, I'd rather buy a used $30,000 coach and $40,000 worth of fuel.

A Unimog radio van is cheaper...... but is it slow and sucks a LOT of fuel.

A Unimog, the worlds best SUV, would be better than a Hummer.

It would certainly draw attention pulling into any parking lot around here. I've only seen one other around here. I want one but it would have to be a diesel, and unless I retrofitted a Swiss or German army one there would be no way I could afford one.

They're not the most fuel efficient, even with a diesel.
