    "I'm about 20% bigger than your average man". If Ed didn't use that as a chat up line in his younger days then I'll be very disappointed.

    Hi Edd , i am soo happy for you getting this job with what car-van, You see your fans/viewers have come to trust you and your no bullshit Character, If you say something is good then it;s good. Even when you were reviewing the Transit you did mention the lack of pockets for pens etc and pointed out that if you were to leave them out in the open [top of dash pockets] everyone could see them, not trying to cause any friction but if that was brewer he would most likely have glossed over that trying to earn brown [nose] points with the Manufactures but not you, STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOUR FANS Edd your going FAR best wishes SCOOBS Wales.

    We have the Ford Transit here in America. I sometimes drive a Transit 250 that's either 2WD or AWD with a 3.5 Liter gas (Petrol) V6. The medium wheel base with the medium rooftop. I believe it's 9 feet in clearance.

    Aaah, the Ford Transit. A common sight nowadays in southern Chile due to its usage by local tour operators. Stop by the Petrohue River Waterfalls in the middle not the summer season and you’re bound to find at least 5 to 7 parked nearby in between older Sprinters, Boxers and Hyundai’s H1

    I have been trying to have one of these (a 2021 year model), delivered to me in Australia having put the deposit down in April. The delivery date was going to be August then it was going to be Oct now it is February next year 2022. I have decided to opt for something else. Something that is already here in the country...... an LDV deliver 9 LWB high roof in pacific blue, for about $15,000 less than the equivalent Transit.

    where is the speed sensor located on the 6sp RWD transmission on Ford Transit LWB 2012 T155 2.2L?
    Van goes into limp mode at 40mph with TCS dash light flashing. Diagnosed as wiring/faulty VSS, because (when goes into limp mode) all 4 wheel speed sensors report speed but VSS reports no data (0 mph).

    • @petelattimer6808
      @petelattimer6808 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      crew cab is a pre built vehicle with rear body on. chassis cab you buy the cab and chassis (in whatever size/cab type you choose) and add a body aftermarket. ideal for camper vans, horse boxes, recovery trucks (subject to weight limits) etc.

    • @petelattimer6808
      @petelattimer6808 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      all vans rust away faster than cars. its because they try to keep the cost of manufacture down. but having rust treatment like waxoyl carried out periodically costs very little.
