Tell me if I’m making a mistake

Transit 250 LWB

I am considering buying one of these, tell me what is bad please, looking at longevity, but these days I guess expectations are lower, maybe 150k miles…I’ve heard nightmares and lived nightmares. I owned the 5.4 3 valve ugh. V6 cyclone 2024

We just bought a new leftover 2024 Transit 350 HD HR EL 148” WB Strictly for the 3.5L Eco Boost TORQUE AND the Dual Rear Wheel options & love it.
this is the 3rd EB engine we’ve owned.
I like the Brute Torque they make under 2k rpm.
Ive driven F350 Diesel’s since 1997 & not a fan of a downshifting Gas burner at all but these lil twin turbo V6’s are AMAZING.

we are building a camper van & no way I’d want a FWD ProMaster, Mercedes or Chevy Express vans.

Transit is leap years ahead of the dated Econolines in performance, superb ride & quiet cabs.
