Unless you have a commercial demand for a large, enclosed vehicle (or have a huge family with a need for a wide variety of seats) probably a full size van isn’t your first choice for a vehicle. But the bells and whistles that are available on the Ford Transit these days are enough to make even the most traditional Chevy Cruze driver at least intrigued by the new capabilities coming out on these excellent vehicles.
Ford Transit Specs
First off, the Ford Transit has the most configurations in its class. For the 2015 model year, there are 47 configurations, and with the addition of dual sliding cargo doors available on 2016 Ford Transits, that number will bump up to 58.
The Ford Transit is available with:
- Two different wheelbases (130 inches and 148 inches)
- Standard or extended body lengths
- High, medium, and low roof heights
- Three different cab styles (chassis cab, cutaway, and wagon)
By mixing and matching these configurations, customers can build the vehicle that is best for their demands. (If you’re looking for something a little smaller than a full-ton van with up to 487.3 cubic feet of cargo space, check out the Ford Transit Connect, which is smaller, but no less mighty.)
Ford Transit Transportation in Style
But what can you do with a Ford Transit? As the Ford Transit Specs show, you can do practically anything. but what does that look like practically? Well, just check out a few of the pictures below, which are a selection of Ford Transits that folks have taken and super-modified to be exactly what they are looking for in a vehicle.

Whether you need a stylish food cart, a pet-grooming studio, a snowboard repair shop, a home-base for teaching folks how to surf, a mini-paramedic blood drive location, or the swankiest limo known to man (or at least one with a really high roof) the Ford Transit has the space and the go-getting power to do it all. Neat, right?
