Ford's big box on wheels gets a new mission: living on and off-road.
Ford on Thursday introduced a new version of its Transit van that embraces the whole van life culture.
The Transit Trail has been designed to be ready for adventures straight from the factory, and includes 3.5 inches of extra ground clearance to ensure those adventures can happen in rougher terrain than just the campsite parking place. Modifications include 30.5-inch Goodyear Wrangler Workhorse all-terrain tires wrapped around 16-inch wheels, along with wheel arch cladding, and a 2.75-inch wider track. Slider-style driver- and passenger-side steps are also included.
The camper-van market has some untapped potential, especially as there are so few options available straight from the factory. Of course, camper-van conversions have become a DIY trend, and many third-party upfitters build motorhomes using van chassis cabs as starting points.
