Video courtesy of WLBT. Marsha there is about 5'6 or so, if I recall right. First one off the line was a high-roofed version. Not sure how much you can tell from the video, but it's a start.

Wow, that makes the Sprinter look like a piece of art
Cool. I'm driving it in a couple of weeks.
The fad could be coming back...

I didn't see anything about a "shaggin' couch" option!
I'd rock one!
A sprinter would be pretty cool too.
IN case anyone is curious about them... they aren't on the regular website, but on the commercial vehicle site:

I agree - pretty it is not. But a good bit cheaper than a comparable Sprinter... although it's not going to get the Sprinter's mid-20's mpg... The cargo space isn't as large as a LWB Sprinter either. Looking at the dimensions, it looks about the same as my old E-150: 10' behind the seats and a bit more than 12' between them.
The 9500# towing capacity for the V8 version sounds nice. IIRC, it beats the Sprinter there.
There were rumors of a diesel engine option. They didn't pan out for this year, and I can't find a rumor about next yet.
When I see vehicles like that I find it absolutely amazing that someone got paid to design that ugly thing and that other people green lighted it for production.

i believe its also built on the titan/frontier/pathfinder/xterra platform, and there were also rumors of a 4x4 version, so that has the expeditionportal crowd all riled up too.

It is, in that the Titan's are built right around the corner in the same factory in Canton, MS. :) 4x4, Turbodiesel and a tall roof would make a great platform.
Just wait until the Ford Transit starts being produced here, then everyone in the American van industry is in for a world of hurt.
Interesting piece of news but I think I'll stick with the Fords.
