Yours is nice will say that. Love that huge front bumper.
But the thing that makes me dislike Ford is that they could put a box on wheels and people/corporations would buy it. Chrysler when they were with Diamler they made the Dodge Sprinter offered with a gas engine and the super econo class Diesel. Nice for all sorts of purposes; buses, panel vans, cargo vans, work vans, an actual standard van, lots of applications. But did DTE buy them? NO. Ford comes out with a mini version the Ford Connect, not even made in N. America, made in Turkey. And they don't have a deisel version yet. And DTE buys the shit out them. the people I have talked to say they hate them, main reason why; TOO SMALL. fucktards the Sprinter would have done so much better

Yeah, I like the bumper too, pretty sure I can hit anything from a squirrel to a moose and anything between without damage! In fact I did get a coon on the way home and barely even felt it.
The Guard has a few Sprinters, the are pretty good for hauling a few people and a bunch of gear.
We used the shit out of the Transit's and the Mercedes Benz version while we were in Germany. Awesome rigs, love the little diesel, pretty peppy.

The sprinter and the transit connect ford thing are both nice for what they are made for. Saying the ford is a pos because it's small just shows that their mental capability is dismal. The sprinter which is really just a cheap knock off the mercades is nice, but as stated very pricey and perhaps not the best application for DTE (yes SE, MI energy company/Detroit Edison). Finally, the lack of mental capability doesn't exactly make me feel comfortable being those guys are running the nuclear plant 20 mins from my house.

Thanks.
I feel for you, hope you don't die from a nuclear "accident"
