Like it. give us some more work truck stuff like this

I've never seen a Sprinter cab-chassis here in the USA with a dump bed. I thought they were only available in Europe and other countries.

I have to admit, i dont really like the pin system idea. Sure, it works great when you're just displaying it to people, but on the job? When the underbody and sides of your truck are crusted in mud and rock? Or when its apocalyptic with the weather outside? Nevermind that you can lose those pins (or they can be stolen).
Typical mercedes sprinter fare. "Oh this looks like a good idea on paper. lets go through with it without field testing it thuroughly". -
Maybe for wealthy small farms, or landscaping company. But 4000lb payload is pretty small. Cool how it can dump in multiple directions, but $50,000? Its not $50,000 cool.

In this day and age , what about idiot proofing ? It seems to me that you can put both pins in the front mounts and raise the bed crushing your cab . And what if you attempt to drive the truck or operate the dump bed with one or both pins missing? Personally I don't see why the rest of the world has to suffer for idiots but it is a sue society now days.

Take all the pins out and see what happens. Who thought of the name "Scatto"?
-
The perfect vehicle to use for dumping all those antiquated, push-rod, US V8's‼️😇🇺🇸🚗🔚

2016 fords out when are to guys getting you hands on one. And is there anything new with them as in towing or inter engines or inter or even tech
-
Is it okay to hit golf balls at it?
-
Why is there always such obnoxious music in your videos? And why is it so often played at inappropriate times, like when one is actually trying to hear what the guy is saying about the truck?

An F550 cab and chassis with a dump body has more than 10,000 lbs. payload and will run about $40,000 BEFORE Ford's massive fleet discounts. Why would anyone pay $50,000 for this?
-
2 tons really not heavy duty enough
-
Great video. That dump bed design is ingenious. I would have liked some more information about the truck's engine; transmission; and drive system, though. Thanks Andre.
-
It's kind of ugly, seems really expensive for all the more it is, and 4k lbs isn't that much. I'd rather just buy a pickup and a dumb trailer.
-
3:10 : Thats how we use it in Germany for at least 30 years, to dump it on the located side.
-
WE USED TO HAVE A SIMULAR DUMP BED ON A 1 TON FORD. IT WAS EARLY WINTER THE FROZEN SAND IN THE BED STUCK. WHEN BED TILTED TO SIDE TO DUMP, THE TRUCK FLIPPED ON TO ITS SIDE. BAD IDEA SPRINTER.

What happened to raptor upgrades?
-
Here in Europe that van gross weight is 11,000lbs with a 5-5500lbs payload. Would retail at around $60,000

Interesting system. That would be a nice system for landscapers and that sort of thing. These chassis-cabs will eventually catch on, if only for their cost of operation. I've seen a couple of the ProMaster chassis cabs running around lately, so at least some people think they are a good idea.
fuel filter in accessable, no water bleed off always in limp mode transmission vibration due to no low range and torque cnverter warping under excessive load.
