Is yours a front wheel or rear wheel drive Transit , Steve. People tell me that the new FWD is not as good as the older RWD vans. I have always found Transits great.

Steve, the new shape Transit is available in both front wheel or back wheel drive as you know. Owners tell me that they are a better van to drive than the old type body, but I had a Transit with 166,000 miles on the clock and never any gearbox trouble,( or any major trouble for that matter)
