In a previous F150 I had a Cobra 19 (IIRC) in the cubby-hole to the right of the steering column. I just bought a Cobra 75 WX ST and an extra COBRA AC-701 so I can easily move it from one vehicle to the other. The Transit just has NO room for adding much of anything so that hooked me on the 75.

Pics of mine are in the link in my sig. I have a big radio, trailer brake controller under the dash, and manual trans, so I put it up top. Doesn't give me any trouble adjusting anything.
