Re: [MBZ] Groomers will be able to asses the needed equipment - 2010 Sprinter repo - $25, 000

2023-11-28 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
When I had dogs that needed grooming I bought an Oster clipper set. They were 
not show dogs so all I cared about was giving them periodic haircuts that 
didn't look like total hack jobs.

2023-11-28 Thread Kevin Kraly via Mercedes
We’ve had a couple different mobile groomers. The first one in Colorado had an 
older T1N Sprinter, Tail Waggin’. The other one in Oregon, Roff Roads, started 
out with a converted enclosed trailer in 2019. Business quickly took off, so 
quickly in fact that within a few months, he took the plunge and bought a 
converted Ford Transit 350, then a new Sprinter that he drove from NC, and then 
a second Sprinter. Prices started out at $125 per Doodle, and now, they’re 
approaching $300 apiece (and we had four)! I would always cringe as they idled 
in the driveway for over two hours, especially the newer Sprinters with DEF/DPF 
and OM642 engine. I believe that the OM642 was discontinued after the 2022 
model year.

Sometimes it's worth paying them come to you, so you can watch and

Those mobile groomers are all over out here. A majority of them are set up in a 
Sprinter. People must make a decent living because I know it’s pricey to have

When did they ditch the five cylinder?

This one has the OM642 V6.

And a long list of features, including:
XC8 - VIN VISIBLE FROM OUTSIDE
XL8 - WEIGHT VARIANT 3880 KG
Y43 - HYDRAULIC JACK
Z44 - REGISTRATION OF VEHICLE NOT POSSIBLE IN EU
Z90 - UNDERBODY CONSERVATION DELETED
ZB6 - PRODUCTION PARTS KIT
ZU8 - USA COUNTRY VERSION
ZX9 - FREIGHTLINER EXECUTION

I guess Freightliner has something against underbody rustproofing?
At least it has a VIN plate on the dash. Do EU market vehicles not have 
that anymore?
