We were in Old Town Alexandria, VA today and saw some Ford Transits running around. As it turned out they were debuting them today in America and had several at a media show. I took a picture of these two.



Those are not the full sized Ford Transit vans that compete directly with the Sprinter in Europe.

I wish Ford would the the full sized Transits over here.

Which would have more room for a "mini" B? Transit or Grand Caravan?

For a roomy mini-B, how about the Element?

Just looking at the photo... it appears that the transit may have more height, but a minivan has more length. I went with the Sienna...

OK is it just me but I think they will have to do a little styling to make them appealing.

I was looking at one on the local Ford dealers lot 2 weeks ago. Had not seen one before & it just caught my eye, so I just had to go look at it. Great concept. Would be great for those that tent camp. Lots of room for equipment.

MY local Ford dealer had one on its lot this week with a sold sign on it already. It's a cute little thing, but probably too small for most of us. If only they would bring over the larger model.
