Owned transit for 2 weeks put 1,200 miles on its and already broke down. Well I was driving down interstate and acceleration Died pulled over and motor was puttering like a weed eater. Got a tow to the nearest Ford who told me it needed a new throttle body. Then they told me they couldnt even order part till 2 weeks.(since so new) Called back 2 weeks later ....they told me they were able to order but wouldn't receive for another 3 weeks minimum. The worst part... They refused to pay for rental or even loan out a courtesy vehicle. So... It's been 19 days, $1,100 in rental fees and Ford still doesn't know when they will have the part. But if your interested in details about the van.. There's not much to say first of all I get less than 13 miles to the gallon. I can't understand how a 3.7 liter motor can guzzle so much fuel. And no it doesn't have to do with throttle body issue as I know 2 other people with new transits. Terrible gas mileage even with 150 model. I strongly suggest to find other options. These vehicles are put together fast and made cheap so there adorable for ignorant rich business owners to purchase for fleets. If your looking to save time and money don't buy a Ford.

have had the van for 2.5 years now. No problems to speak of. A few things; This van stinks in the snow. Any snow. I get stuck in a few inches. The tires that come with it are basically the only ones you can use. I have continental M&S. I have called tire dealers and have really no options. The drivers seat, no room for your left foot. ok for short trips, really bad, uncomfortable for longer drives. The brakes squeak every now and then. don't need new ones yet, they squeak for 2-3 weeks then stop. it's annoying. The motor and the transmission are champs. I love the power at any speed. I always have 1000 pounds of tools, sometimes much more. It always moves as needed. Smooth gears, great for towing! Overall a solid van. So far, still so good, still loving it.

If you're a surfer this us the van for you. It will hold your entire quiver of surfboards from 12' stand up paddle boards to longboards, fun boards and high performance shortboards with plant of room left over to crash for the next mornings Dawn patrol. My friends call my 250 Transit Cargo van The Space Shuttle. I could rave about this van for weeks but the surf is going off and I'm getting ready tp paddle out. So if you're in the market for the ultimate Surf Life van the Ford Transit 250 cargo rules the line up. Check em' out... Aloha.
