Another problem with the Sprinter...you can't spin the wheels. It has some feature that seems to choke off the engine so that the "foolish" operator can't give it "too" much throttle. Well, you can't give it enough throttle either.

Traction control - needs to be switchable.
One time, I had ABS in a Volvo just give up on me. The traction conditions and my speed did not compute, so it just gave up. The result was not good. I could have stopped that car.
New drivers will never know the skill of braking in the snow. Those were the days...
"see you later mom."
"where are you going in this blizzard?"
"I'm going driving!"

Yup. Sounds like what I experienced.
I know how to drive in slippery conditions, as everyone should. The gubment or the manufacturers or the insurance companies, apparently, think they need to save us from having to learn those skills and would rather we just park it and call for help.

You can get the Chevy Express 1500 cargo or passenger van in AWD. Nice for us in the snow belt. Would be nice if they offered it in a 2500 version but no.
Also a nice feature with the GM vans is the option for doors on both sides.
