Wondering about towing...

One thing I'm wondering about with the Transit (most specifically, the long body, high roof, DRW, EB version) is how well it will tow.

I'm not looking to do extreme duty work, but if I do get one built out as a class "B" motorhome, I'm looking to haul along a small enclosed cargo trailer (total weight of the trailer would be 3000 pounds, 5000 pounds maximum), which when parked at a renaissance faire, will help with stashing items that I need on site, so I don't have to carry them back and forth every weekend.

I'm wondering if I might have to look into a third party transmission cooler, similar to what is needed on Sprinters, or if Ford already has that in place (similar to the cooler on F-150s.)

a transmission cooler will be a great investment from what i know especially if you will be towing very often
Has any of the Sprinter guys put a t/c or a rtd in the line to monitor the temp out of the trans. to the radiator?
That would be a good idea to at least know what's going on in the transmission.
