New, but happy so far!

Cabin is comfortable, roomy(I'm 5'10") Handling seems nimble, compliant, but not a powerhouse - Ford annoyingly chose to leave out a way to switch off cargo light.

well engineered!

most head room ever seen, great ride with long wheel base, titanium option is money well spent, windors are so tall there is excellent view, interior design is so versatile with many configurations and heated leather seats are the bomb! Did I mention good milage per gallon?

Only just bought it

I was looking to upgrade to a vehicle that could get my family of 3 around and allow us to put bicycles inside the vehicle. The Transit does it. I haven't put many miles on it yet, so I can't speak to reliability. But I can say 1) It is a good looking vehicle that you don't see everywhere, 2) it may not have a lot of power, but I am driving a minivan, not a sports car, 3) there is a ton of visibility with all of the giant windows, 4) it doesn't have power sliding doors (and they won't be the first thing to break), 5) The gas mileage is decent, getting around 23 MPG in mostly city driving with giant hills (to put this in perspective, I only got 41 in a Prius because of the same hills), 6) I have the Titanium edition with the panoramic roof and it is nice, but I would have struggled to pay for the upgrades if the car was new, 7) For a used vehicle with less than 15,000 miles on it, I paid less than half of the original sticker price, and 8) this thing is tall (I can open the tailgate and just clear my garage door by less than an inch). At this point, I am very happy with it. Hopefully it turns out to be as reliable as my last several cars and last me a long time.

I love it

I haven't owned my transit very long but so far I am really enjoying driving it. I enjoy all the extras it came with. First Ford I have owned so I am hoping it will be a reliable vehicle.

Looking forward to buying a Flex Fuel Ford Transit

Looking forward to buying a Flex Fuel Ford Transit so I can run it on E85 Ethanol and slash my Petroleum Usage.
