Sitting in it right now. Date code is 05/12 but its a cargo version with a cage.
To be honest.....you know what you could make badass into a camping/offroad rig and still have good milage is a dodge sprinter with a cummins. They are bigger and look more badass. This transit is lame in general and like u said no eco boost. But the 2.0 na ferd engine in here has more than enough power for the fwd/traction control type driving. Good thing is the tc cuts the throttle 100 % when the front tires loose traction.
Happens when im stopped and cut the wheel n floor it to get the tires to spin.
I like testing things out lol. Esp the conti pro contacts on here. Which arent bad so far.

I like the look of inline blocks. Very clean. I noticed that the inline 6 in general is the most bulletproof setup around.
Jeeps gasser, cummins diesel and nissans gasser. Good engines, very reliable.

If i could have my ultimate rig it would either be a conservatively lifted 07 2500 ram with the 5.9 inline 6.
Then make the turbo sing like a VVT with a metal intake, ported heads and a bigger turbo horn.
I love when all u hear is quietish exhaust and the turbo whistle. And no loud knocking engine like a 12v 5.9.

I don't know how I forgot about these... I have a few of the cargo and high-roof versions at work and they are really nicely put together
