I was reading a thread about the how the Econoline van is being replaced by the Transit (full sized Transit) and the Transit Connect was being mentioned in the thread. Some people doubt the capability of the TC. Here is proof that it gets the work done. I use a Transit Connect to deliver my fleet customers engines on a regular basis. A transit connect will easily haul a dressed 6.0 Power Stroke Diesel engine that weighs 1000 lbs. We delivered on a few of weeks ago with a TC. It barely squatted. The TC is VERY capable.
