Dodges are all completely made in Germany or Austria or wherever and shipped. Freightliners are shipped chassis/running gear and the rest is assembled in South Carolina. By 2010 or so, they will be made outside Greenville, SC - right near the BMW plant!

Depends on which dealer sold it. Freightshaker sells Freightliners. THose sold by Dodge are Dodges. As far as I know no Mercedes Benz Sprinters are imported through official channels, so non are registered as MB. Doesn't matter if you add the MB trim, a dodge would still be a Dodge, just one that looks like an MB At 02:09 PM 1/19/2006, you wrote: >So does a Sprinter get registered as a Dodge, Freightliner or Merc?
