How fast is the 2016 sprinter 2.0t compared to my car? Can it keep up with me?
My car is a 2003
Honda Element awd 4 speed auto. So one my co workers who happens to have his dad stop by at work pulled up in a 2016 sprinter. And long sorry short, my co worker and his dad took my for a ride in this commercial van that they own and I was pretty surprised by how fast imit was able to quickly accelerate up to speed. For a high roof commercial sized van, it weighs about 8000 lbs but it gets off the line from 0-60 maybe around 9 sec or so and on the highway, going for a 10 mile test drive, it handled highway curves pretty well cruising around 75-80 mph. Unfortunately the van wasn't governed at 82 mph. Which is understandable but my question is, if this van did not have a limiter, could it possibly keep up with other normal 4 cylinder cars on the highway such as my Honda Element? Or would my Honda be able to outrun something like this? Say I was chased by an angry driver in this van, how fast would my Honda need to go in order to keep a safe distance between it?
It's a cargo van, Mark. So it's not very fast. Why are you worrying about winning a drag race against this vehicle? Don't you have some more important life goals to focus on?
I think your honda would beat most mowing machines… But your thinking out of your box again .it will be a hearse next week…
Can my box beat that Mercedes sprinter in every aspect of performance?
- I have a 2006 Honda Metropolitan, WHen cold it starts up but i have to keep revving it to keep it going? I have already replaced the battery, air filter, spark plug, did an oil change, got new gas, cleaned out the carb. Once it is warm i have no issues with it. It usually takes about 3 to 4 min of driving it to get it warm but once warm everything is fine with stopping and going.
- Car insurance compared to small truck insurance? I have a Honda Fit right now, but am interested in buying a new small four-wheel drive truck. How do insurance rates generally compare (in Ontario) between a subcompact car and a small truck?
- 2016 MINI Cooper Hardtop 4 Door or 2016 Honda Fit for first car? I love cute and comfy. Mostly just to get to and from work at Disney, but I'm also a big traveler so would love something comfy and cozy that sort of resembles my personality (I know- I'm cheesy) I know nothing about cars and this will be my first! I'm 19 and have waited to get my license for way too long so I'm working on it in Driving 101 and should take the test next month!
- Should I get a 2016 Honda CR-V EX AWD or a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek 2.1i Limited? I'm trying to decide between the two. They are both the same price at my dealers. I'm probably going to end up moving to Colorado but I don't think I will go off road at all. Which of these is the better car? Which do you think will last longer?
