I drive the Transit every day doing about 200 miles on mixed roads - city, motorway, you name it. Handles tight turns better than I'd expect for such a long van, and never felt unsafe even when I've got a full load. The turning circle surprised me, actually helps a lot with city parking. Cabin is solid, doesn't feel cheap, seats are comfy even after a long shift, and I'm tall so appreciate the extra head/leg room. Couple things aren't perfect, like it's still not quite as much load space as the very biggest rivals (Crafter just edges it there), and don't love the bulky key fob. Maintenance isn't too bad, Ford service intervals are pretty reasonable. Tech's decent - Bluetooth works, cruise control's smooth. Wouldn't say it's exciting, but gets the job done with zero drama most days.

Been running the e-Transit for deliveries in town for a few months now. Honestly, it's not what I expected after running diesel Transits for years. The quiet is nice, especially on early runs, and the cab's way more comfortable - more like sitting in a regular car than a van, which I didn't think I'd care about but it's actually good after a long shift. Straightforward to drive, lots of torque right out of the gate, and not having to deal with gears is a bonus. But the range can drop faster than you'd think if you're hauling heavy stuff, especially when it's cold. You really need a home or depot charger for it to make sense. Public charging is too expensive and a hassle. Maintenance's been easy so far. Not missing oil changes, I can tell you that. Not perfect, but it fits the city job well.

Got behind the wheel of the Ford Transit recently, and I'll say, it's roomy in the driver's seat! The storage options are endless-from under-seat compartments to overhead storage. Even though the model I used had some sway on the road, it didn't bother much, given the van's sheer size.

The Ford Transit provides a good balance of functionality and comfort. I regularly use it for transporting goods, and the versatility of converting it from passenger to cargo mode is a significant advantage. One thing to note is the tendency of the body to develop rust over time if not carefully maintained, especially in high-humidity areas. Nonetheless, the heating and cooling systems work effectively regardless of the load, which is a relief during temperature extremes.

What surprised me most was how normal this Transit Custom feels from the driver seat. The seat has loads of adjustment, the steering is light and accurate, and the six-speed shift is clean. It has good low-end pull when loaded. On a motorway it settles down well, cruise control helps, and the cabin stays quieter than I expected. It is still a big van though. Tight streets and finding a parking bay can get annoying fast.

Been using different Transit specs for site work and small deliveries. Lots of variants so choose carefully or you end up paying for stuff you dont need. The 2.0 EcoBlue is efficient but watch the AdBlue needs - the writeup says it needs more frequent top-ups, that’s an extra chore and cost on tight jobs. Load area is more usable than old van thanks to more vertical sides and a wider side door, but the Crafter still wins on sheer volume. Tech and parking aids added in later updates help in town, but some useful things like LED load lights are optional. Mixed feelings: very capable and comfortable, but complexity and some running costs can add up.

Been driving all sorts of vans forever and the regular Ford Transit is just part of my routine now. It's hard to go anywhere without spotting a few. I like that you can get them in different sizes - some weeks I need loads of space, some weeks not so much. They make it easy, but honestly, sometimes I feel like just another member of some massive club, y'know? Drives alright. The six-speed manual shifts decent but don’t expect anything fancy with the base spec inside. It’s a van, comfort isn’t top tier but it does the job. One thing I will say is it just gets the work done. Ubiquity aside, I’d trust it to haul pretty much anything and not leave me stranded. Not exactly cheap these days though. New ones are up there. Still, maintenance is mostly straightforward and not too pricey.

After extensively using this vehicle, I find its compact yet spacious design offers excellent cargo management without sacrificing maneuverability. The diesel engine's performance is robust, providing reliable power for urban and highway driving. However, the in-cab noise level could be better managed for a more comfortable experience.

Been putting loads of miles on the current Ford Transit (mostly the new EcoBlue engine with 130ps). Getting in and out of the cab is a lot less hassle now, and you notice it's way quieter than the old ones. Long stints on the motorway are no problem, even with heavy gear in the back - decent sound deadening, no rattles, and that six speed box just cruises. The storage for bits and bobs is a lifesaver, finally have places to stash my spare gloves, coffee mug, all that nonsense. One thing, though, found myself filling up the AdBlue more often than I'd hoped - can get annoying when you're on longer hauls. Fuel efficiency's decent for the size, but not seeing that claimed 44mpg unless you're really nursing it. Still, compared to Sprinter or Crafter, don't feel shortchanged on interior or comfort. Not wild about the price tags on new ones, but for the size and spec it kind of tracks these days.

I've had the chance to operate the Ford Transit Custom for my delivery jobs and there's quite a lot to like about it. The mid-size design is practical for navigating urban areas while still offering reasonable cargo space. I went with the automatic transmission option, and it shifts smoothly. However, road noise feels a bit pronounced at highway speeds. Overall, it's a functional work vehicle.
