Thank you for all the help this forum has provided. I've been working with a Mercedes truck dealer for months and he never sent me the order guide nor the equipment guide which were crucial for determining exactly how I wanted my Metris configured. Then he offered to sell me one as MSRP though I could drive 2 hours to his dealership and we could discuss price.
In the mean time, I contacted another dealer who was helpful and quoted me a price via email that seemed reasonable. Earlier this week I ordered one through him. We're buying a cargo van with quite a few extra features which I intend to turn into a camper van and use as a regular truck around town. The price I'll be paying is 93.2% of MSRP + plus taxes, documentation fee, etc. Given what Edmund's says the average deal on a Sprinter is, that value seems pretty good considering this early in the release of a new van they are unlikely to have any dealer incentives in place.
Thanks again for all your help, particularly Tennispro.
