Nice video! Thanks for making it. I lost my cargo van recently in a T-boned accident. So I've been looking at these on-line. I go to pick mine up on Thursday this week. This video further convinced me I'm making the right business decision. I entered this model on one of those fuel websites and with my regular business route I drive each night I'll be saving about $76/month in fuel alone coming down to this engine from a chevy astro cargo v-6 engine...but with the same room! Great video post!

*It is a February of 2024. Just before Christmas Day on 23rd of December of 2023, I have purchased 2011 FORD Transit Connect XLT as a 5 passenger + cargo van) with its original 126 000 km on it !!!! I am so happy for this purchase, because this particular European designed model of the FORD, was the car of my dreams, which I couldn't afford for a long period of time !!!! Just imagine, how happy I am right now !!!!* Previously, I was originally driving my 2002 SUZUKI Esteem Station Wagon ... and was so happy of it - until he died from undercarriage rust and I lost rear wheel on the right turn at 20 km/h. *Unfortunately for the FORD Motor Company .... their NEW models of the same name vehicle, made after 2014 .... they are UGLY and they are NOT the same, nice and simple as this one !!!! I will never buy FORD Transit Connect XLT made after 2014 !!!!*

Actually the road noise is pronounced as a vehicle with no interior would be.

They're not bad cars at all! I think Chrysler still has a ways to go before I would buy one, but they're definitely good cars!

This is no where near as big as an econoline . It's not even as big as an Astro. It can't haul 4x8 foot sheet goods. this is something that the aged grand caravan CAN do.

I disagree with pretty much everything that as said here. It doesn't nearly has the cargo space of an econoline, it's like half, at best. A Dodge Caravan has more cargo space. It doesn't look too bad when empty, but put some shelves and stuff in there and you'll realize it's pretty cramped. Ride isn't smooth at all, motor is very loud and not powerful at all. It needs to go high RPM to reach moderate speeds such as 50Kmph. It struggles to go uphill. But again, you're driving the truck empty... The transmission doesn't shift smooth, that gotta be the biggest joke. It's often jerky and when going uphill it can't decide whether it wants to go lower gear with higher RPM, or higher gear with lower RPM. And if you live in area where you get snow, stay the hell away from that truck. It has literally no traction, because it's a front wheel drive with virtually no weight at the front. Take turns very slowly and carefully. The traction control kicks in easily and you CAN'T turn it off, so if you're stuck in the snow (which it really don't need any more than couple inches to get stuck), then you're SOL, the wheels just won't spin at all. Also, be prepared to get that thing fixed every 2 months. The cooling system seems to always have problems. I've been driving this as a home dispatch truck for about 6 months(and been driving several of them for a year before that) and it's currently in repair... for the 5th time already. Overheating. AGAIN. Third time I have to leave it for repair or the same problem. Now I have a loner one... which has the check engine light. lol, no surprise here. Getting tired to moving my stuff from a truck to another.
