  • Kyle, Alyssa, and the dogs load up in the Rebel to head to Jackson, Wyoming! Along the way they encounter complete whiteout conditions, closed roads, and subzero temperatures. Enjoy the trip!

    1980 I lived in a small Winnebago with my best friend, Dash. 114 lb female mountain lion. Google, Dwight Bernheimer, headline will come up that reads, Mountain lions are NOT for everyone... PS. I'd rather travel with one mountain lion than with three dogs. Just Sayin'... Good stuff thanks for posting.

    Hey, never leave a leash on a dog. Ever see what happens when they are running full tilt and the leash gets caught ...... always take the leash off.

    How is the Lane Keep assist on this Sprinter? Does it have electric steering assist and will steer you back in lane? Is this built on a 21 chassis? Did they improve the drivers assistance functions from the earlier models? I heard it was downright dangerous to use in the '19 model and pretty much had to be turned off because it slammed on the brakes when it tries to correct you back in the lane, especially in constructions zones. It's nothing like GMs supercruise or the blue cruise on Fords?

    You never mentioned if the coolant warning went off after warming up? I've had that problem several times when the weather first turns cold. I've often thought it takes a few mornings for the computer to recognise the contraction due to the cold.
    You probably know this trick but in really cold weather cycle the glow plugs 2 or 3 times before you hit the starter. Leave about 10 seconds between turning the plugs back on. Have a GM and a Jetta and have started both with out plugging in at night at -40. When its that cold there is no mistaking they are a diesel with the clatter when first started:)

    100% get a dehumidifier, there can be an issue with moisture finding it's way down to the EIS module and the water ingress will prevent the vehicle from operating. Not uncommon on the Sprinter, mine did it and the module took 2.5 Months to arrive due the global chip shortage.

    Thanks for your video. One question. 20,000 between oil changes ? Are you certain about that ? Although the manufacture suggests 20K, under perfect conditions, I believe that several additional oil changes over the life of your cab is cheaper than a new engine. Be Safe !

    • @totaled108
      @totaled108 2 роки тому

      As the owner of a 2016 Sprinter that converted 5 years ago, I too was very apprehensive about going so many miles between oil changes. We have the OM651, 2.1l diesel.
      I get an oil analysis at each oil change. First oil change at 10,000 miles and was told the oil had lots of life left. Each oil change after was done at 20,000 mile intervals. Each oil analysis came back with great numbers and could go more miles before changing it. I’ll stick with 20k intervals, maybe tighten it up after 100k. 97,000 miles and going well.
