Too bad you couldn't get the Deutz-powered rig. I wouldn't mind eventually going to their factory in Haedo (Buenos Aires province) if you had any trouble searching for replacement parts The 913-series are still very popular in Argentina, as much as the Cummins is in America.

It looks like a sprinter kinda. It's pretty low miles, has a 5.9 iveco 6 cyl diesel

I've read not so good things about iveco trucks tho.
Should I steer clear?
You should get this one, the engine is identical to the Cummins B-series, so no worry about replacement parts or reliability. Maybe the main issue was related to their stock Fiat transmissions but if it's already upgraded to a Dodge one you shouldn't worry
