- Not all enclosed cargo carriers are approved for use at the rear of an RV like the part # M2205-01-02 that you referenced but I do have a great solution for you that is.

I attached a picture of what the carrier looks like installed on an RV as well as an install video for more info as well.

- As long as your 2020 Sprinter 2500 with the 170 inch wheelbase and standard bumper isn't a passenger van and the frame members do NOT measure 30-3/8 inches apart measured outside of frame to outside of frame, the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13388 will fit perfectly.

- For your 2017 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 2500 the Roadmaster sway bar kit part # RM-1209-128 is a confirmed fit and will work great. Since you do not have a factory sway bar you will need to also use the # RM-590064-00 when you install it.

- For your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 you really can't go wrong with either Curt or Draw-Tite as they are both very respected brands. When choosing which one, you do want to check and see if your Sprinter has the standard bumper or the factory step bumper.

- Since the crew van is a hybrid between the Passenger and Cargo van, where you have a row of seats behind the front captains chairs, you would want to use the Passenger model mats (although its likely you could use either one and that the fronts of both models are going to be the same). You won't have any interference with the vent by adding front floor mats to your 2016 Sprinter van. Depending on your use of the van, you're probably going to be best served by going with a mat like the WeatherTech...
