I'm planning a DIY build and have been reading on this forum for a few weeks, thanks all for the pictures and details. Your shared info has made me more confident that i'm selecting the correct van and options.
My news, I saw my first EL van in the wild yesterday. Was driving thru Lakeview OR, and happened to spot a Ford Transit EL HR, White with FedEx logo. Probably not news that large fleets are sourcing this van, i'm sure they bet on all the horses.
sorry no pix, did not stop.
