Again, where are you getting these prices from lmao. A brand new sprinter van isn’t even costing 70k and if you wanted to do this there would be no reason for you to get a brand new one off the lot, and then in no universe is anything they did there even close to 75k worth of material. Unless you are charging like 50k labor minimum lmao

The van they start with is a clearly a stripped base model. This “75” grand number you keep trying to use is the top price range. That van costs 50

That's not a high ceiling or extended wheel base and you need a more powerful engine if you're filling a van full of all this.
