They both share the same parent vehicle: Fiat Ducato. I like the visibility in them, but the powertrain is hit or miss. The transmissions shift like idiots too, but if you use the gear selector, it's not bad as long as you get one that doesn't suck down coolant. Oh, and the passenger headlight bulbs like to blow frequently. We had 3 vans that would blow a passenger bulb every week. Weird issue. Had 2 that were always at the dealer getting the motors overhauled for oil consumption issues, but they never got resolved.

@@jaidixon2110I wouldn’t recommend anybody work for an Amazon dsp. It’s not worth the pay. Forget about stealing wages, more like stealing your health, energy, and youth if you’re still young. Worked for about 2 months then gave it up. $21.25hr, if you take your lunch break that will put you behind. Then you get calls telling you to speed it up, to many rescues equal less routes in the future. On top of that at least where I was working had no benefits, only paid time off. Get there at 9:30 not hitting the road till about 10:40. Get to my route about 11:26. Now I have to deliver almost 300 packages and be finish by 6:30-7:00 and be back on the road to the warehouse by 8. Then if you do finish early now you have to go and help someone else on there route. 2 months working there I had to lose about 20lbs. To me just not worth the headache, body ache, mental ache nor pay.
