Plenty of room for cargo and overall runs smooth. However, the vehicle sometimes hesitates before taking off from a complete stop. Also, the review camera often has an unclear picture. The dealer tells us this is normal because it does eventually clear up. What, what??

I have the 2018 transit connect long wheel base cargo van . I am a courier so I need room, fuel efficiency, confort, and power. This van has it all. I have put 230,000 miles on it in less than 3 years. I have not had one single problem out of it. I do keep on top of scheduled maintenance. I use only full synthetic oil. I regularly load it to the 1600 lb capacity. Even fully loaded it pulls mountains at 65 mph and would go faster if I pushed it. Gas mileage is usually anywhere from 27.5 to 31 mpg. Obviously higher on long freeway trips. I do notice a small drop off in perfomance now that it has so many miles but still a great van. If all goes well it will have over 300,000 on it at the end of this year.

I’ve now owned this guy 5 years. It was in a dealership 3 months ago for the FIRST time, due to a ‘shift cable bushing’ recall replacement. Took them 30 minutes.in and out. I am just over 50k miles now. I have 3 vehicles. Toyota truck, Lexus GS350 and this one. I drive the van the most. It just FUN to drive. Very nimble. Quick steering. One must keep their foot in it of course…being a 4 banger. But it boogies. I consistently drive it 80-85 on freeways here in nor cal. No issues keeping up. It IS noisy. Mine LWB cargo van, empty. Purchased originally to haul music gear to gigs. When I tell people it’s noisy, they laugh….being that I’m about 1/2 deaf playing in rock bands most of my life. I’m 68 now and STILL play in rock bands. The van has been stellar for me. No real complaints. The Nissan and Ram equivalents did not compare even close to me. I would pay big money for a turbo or supercharger if someone made one. That would be one insane ride!

Gets great gas mileage, 20 around town, 28 on highway. Lots of sitting & cargo space. Lots of headroom. Peppy, even though a 4-cylinder.
