It's $38,000+ in the hi profile model, nearly $8,000 more than NV, if the Transit slides in under it, it's going to priced way too high for fleet sales.
I think that it's better to compare NV3500 High Roof to Promaster 1500, 136" WB, High Roof. Promaster is $1,000 cheaper, 1,300 pounds lighter, has more payload capacity, more cargo volume, and there is no doubt that Pentastar will be more fuel efficient than Nissan's V8.

I was initially gonna argue, but yeah, the NV may not start much lower, but it's pricing remains pretty flat.
That's because its capability remains flat.
