have been carefully watching the Transit for the past few years. If Ford ever

So when you say Transit van, I''m unsure which you mean, the full size of
compact, and if compact , which version(year) ?

my now-gone Dodge Caravan had a long life as a kid hauler (ours, scouts,
soccer...), and then morphed into its second life as a bike hauler. It had the
