2015 /2016 FORD transit van
My work van is dying - I am looking at the new Ford van.
What if any bad things should I be aware of with this van? Getting the standard V6 engine, low roof 130 inch wheel base. That is more than I need.
Thanks
Steve

My buddy has a high top 3500 with the diesel and he loves it. He had a 6.7 crew cab that was a shop monster, then a Mercedes high top van which got expensive out of warranty and he said the new Ford Van is a better option than the first two vehicles he had.
Another buddy rented one back in January to attend a trade show and said it rode nice and had a ton of room in it (compared to the old vans).
I will say they aren't real good looking!

Test drove a New Chevy van today and like it a LOT better. Has a lot better ride, front seat was more comfortable and I didn't have to reach for the steering wheel. ( and yes I had it all the way down and extended out ) I am 5' 10" and I had to put the seat way forward so I didn't have to sit straight up to comfortably hold the wheel.
Price is about the same also.

Have you driven the promaster? Front wheel drive may have its benifits.
I've driven A LOT of new transit vans and I'm starting to get used to them. The Eco boost 6 is really peppy and almost fun! They seem like decent units, but all these new vans are wierd for sure.
The only ones I don't like are the Nissan NV....but the new Cummins Titan blew me away but thats a different topic
