2014 Transit Connect

[Mark K 2]

Impressive! I might have to look at one of these!

 

[Bill V]

Interesting exterior look. Not sure if I like it yet or not--but that likely means it will grow on me over time...

Turn it into a sport trac with, an eco-boost V6. I might think about it...LOL

Im 62 and single. Dont need a mini-van....

 

[Bob McDonald]

I'm with you, Eddie. I sure don't need a van at age 70. I had one in the '70's when the kids were young. Now I just need a replacement for my ST. A real smaller sized truck. Absolutely no use for a full size pickup that won't fit in the garage.

Looks OK, but is more like a mini-van than the old tall Transit Connect.



I'm sure LaRue will be disappointed....:cry:

Bob,

In the last 5yrs. All brands of full sized trucks. Have jumped in size, of what use to be HD or SD...

 

[LaRue Medlin]

Hey Richard,,, yep,, dissapointing so far BUT, Ford rumor (by way of the TC forum) says that they will start making them here in the US with the eco-boost 4cyl; a short and or long wheelbase option, and three roof styles , short; medim and tall. Only major problem is they dropped the cargo weight to 1200 from 1600. I'll just have to wait and see... Might just be driving my beast around for many more years.....:cry:

 

[Roger Batts]

LaRue, they will be bringing its big brother, the full-sized Transit here. It, too, will be built here.

 

[Kevin Lang]

They're going to stop making them over in Turkey?? Wow. I wonder what happened?



That'll be yet another hit to the Baltimore economy, though it doesn't break my heart too much.

 

[Roger Batts]

They probably won't stop making them in Turkey since they are considered a global platform vehicle.

 

[Steve McKellop]

That's the people-hauler model. There is to be a work model as well. Ford is still tight lipped about these as of now.

 

[gary s]

i am sure the gen2 will be just as good as the first TC.

 

[LaRue Medlin]

well no TC for me. 2014 cargo van will be 6 inches longer but 300 lbs less gvw and 1.2 ft less room inside.
