Just feeling it out and seeing if there may be any interest here for a sweet new transit. I love this van and have put lots of time and money into it. Im not in need of selling, just testing the waters.
It's a beautiful Magnetic Grey, Medium roof, Long Wheel Base with the Super-fun 3.5 Ecoboost. It's a blast to drive. I live in the Sierra Nevada and this thing has handled the foothills extremely well. The tow-haul mode works great on the winding roads.
It has a full tow-package with trailer breaking. Interior is perfect and VERY comfortable to drive. Much more comfy than my old Tacoma.
It has oversized BFG KO2 All-terrains that work amazingly well in snow and mud. We've had a pretty wet winter so far up here and this thing has surprised me to say the least. I originally planned to get the 4x4 conversion on this thing but in the end decided not too. It does great out camping on fire roads too. This thing is solid and a joy to drive both on and off the freeway. I've been averaging just about 16.5 mpg with the larger tires and with the weight of the conversion so that's not bad. That's of course according to the trucks computer. I haven't done the computation myself.
Again just testing the waters here to see if there's any interest. Lots of good to mention about this van so please feel free to contact me.

Asking $45,000

Full 7 year/ 100,000 mile warranty

Tow Package w/ tow-haul mode and Braking.
BFG All-Terrains KO2's

Nice Partial conversion.

I can answer questions anytime and have a few pictures of the build.

t has been awhile since i looked at used transits, (6 months ago) but used 2016 transits with the same options and less miles were selling for just under 30 grand. (on a nation wide used vehicle website there was a 5000 mile 2016 transit 250 low roof cargo that had every option there is, that was on the market for 5 months and sold for 40 grand that i had hoped to buy! but it took that guy 5 months to sell it at that price to someone else on car guru!
car guru should give you an idea what used transits with the same options and mileage as yours are selling for now:

yeah read it and weep, mine with 4000 miles on it is worth 10 grand less then i paid for it now! But gut out that camper conversion and loose the big tires, spend about 10 grand more and do a medium quality executive conversion and sell it used for 75 grand! (there is 3 of them on car guru, and my local dealer had 2 of them for sale used for around 60 grand each awhile back.)
