My new Truck

[sqkcrk]

I'm gonna buy a Ford transit connect. I'll use it for deliveries and personal use. It has alot of surface area for self promotion. Pretty good price and not bad fuel economy.

They have one on the lot here at our local dealership. It looks more fitting for a Dr. Emmett Brown type.

I am waiting for the 2012 Super Chief.

On a side note: I thought you hated Ford?

it's a shame that the transit doesn't come 4wd/awd and a diesel. It would make one bad little camping van.

Check out the one they have at SEMA.

Keep us updated. I'm curious to see how it works out.

Nope, I don't know how you got that idea.
Hmm, unless it was all of my complaining last spring about my 450 staying in the shop for a month when I should have been in SC.
I don't know how Ford the Transit really is being made in Turkey and Spain.

They must have beefed up the suspension, ya think? My doors don't gullwing like that one.

I went and got it today. The drive home was about an hour and a half. I do like it so far. Now to get the lettering and illustrations designed and applied so EVERYBODY knows who's coming.

Does anyone have contact info for good quality illustrations that I could use on my van? I already asked Barry, on the t-shirt thread, about putting a beesource logo on the van.

Looking for a wrap or just vinyl?

There has been much buzz on some of the other forums I visit about the Transit Connect. Looks like it has potential.

That's what it was.
