    2500 miles in a Ford Transit, a sprinter fans take.

    I have a diesel promaster that was in the shop for months. During that time I rented Ford transits and gas promasters. I never liked the low seat or small foot area of the ford. I found the radio and other dash controls awkward. I like to tie off my loads on the wall and found the ford lacking...

    Mile so far

    If you are saying this year is dead I agree: I drove 5134 paid miles in Jan, 648 in Feb, and 505 in March. Not a great year so far. Is everyone else this dead?

    How many miles on your Promaster

    UPDATE, this week the dealer called me. FCA told them to replace my transmission. I got the van back on Thursday. It seems to run fine. Items i know have been changed in the 10 months it spent in the shop: TCM, Auctuator, Shifter, & the transmission itself. I have not been out on a run with it...

    I still have not gotten a call, I have only done 2 runs this month. Im glad I am a out and back delivery, being stuck at home isn't the worst. I talked with a friend that is also an out and back driver, he has only had 4 runs this month. Is everybody struggling for runs?

    How many miles on your Promaster

    sounds easy! but I still owe on the promaster and cant trade it in while its broke at a shop. And most scary of all is I was quoted $41,000 for the sprinter which makes for a note of about 1100 a month

    How many miles on your Promaster

    i've loved all my 7.3 Fords, having owned several since back when they were naturally aspired to the turbo powerstrokes. My habit has cooled some as I only have 2 left a 99 F250 and a 97 E350. There are many little tricks and updates that can be applied.That is possibly what I would be running...
