I have a 2014 Promaster 2500 high top, 159" WB, bought new in the spring of '14. I'm an artist living in the Kansas City area marketing my paintings at art shows from Houston to Miami to Chicago to etc. etc. 95% of the annual 12000 miles are highway, hauling roughly 50% of its useful load capacity. I installed various racks that hold display panels, frame work and covers of the display booth, a permanent crate behind the seats for large paintings and a solid floor that makes rolling six large crates in and out easy. Otherwise it's pretty much standard.
This is one great van: Stable on the open road, nimble in the tight confines of the typical art festival venue, low to the ground for easy loading, reliable, great gas mileage and simply fun to drive.
I would, however, prefer the cruise control buttons on the right side lower quadrant of the steering wheel and the phone switches on the left (generally similar to a Santa Fe layout) and a dash light next to the "cruise on" light that indicates if it is currently engaged. Also a redesign of the pesky sliding door handle mechanism would be appreciated. Otherwise, I couldn't be happier with my "Pro".
