  1. You always recognize a swede or a norwegian from a battery of aux lights.
  2. I have. No system crash after a meal.
  3. Saw some cool ones here: http://fordtransit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=134533
  4. Wheelbases and trim levels/combinations. The important question is whether you need a SWB/low roof or LWB/high roof.
  5. Looked like they were from the same fleet :P
  6. US: Apparently Q1/2014. It'll be over here in 2 months. I'm going to place an order next week when they get the concrete configuration lists.
  7. Fullsize, yes, TC will be built in Spain.
  8. The most important thing: vinyl graphics. the TC screams for it.
  9. No, we don't get any urea injections here. In cars, that is.
  10. No, just cat + DPF. The newer vDPF is some kind of vaporizer DPF which' work principle I am not aware of.
  11. Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Transit_Connect Height: Pre–2009 SWB: 1,814 mm (71.4 in) LWB: 1,981 mm (78.0 in) 2010– LWB: 2,014 mm (79.3 in) 2010– SWB: 1,815 mm (71.5 in)
  12. They would if US would not have too strict emission requirements. I'll go gas with my next TC (the 2014 model) but only because of the auto box. Other than that, I love the diesel model. 500 miles between fillups is nice. I average 40 mpg, mostly city driving.
  13. The cone will be off the center of the door grill, because the OEM speaker is really close to the rigid frame parts.
  14. I cut the door sheet metal to fit 5x7" ovals, which was no problem. It really depends on the magnet size more than the diameter.
  15. Positive lead does not connect to engine block/body. That's the negative terminal.
  16. What's wrong with the Euro brake light in terms of safety? The fact that it's off center by 4"?
  17. some serious work put into the van.
  18. There's a limit to mpg when pushing a brick through air. I have a diesel model and in summer I get 40 mpg around town and 33 mpg on highway, it's just aerodynamics.
  19. Spam bots. Gotta tighten the registration process.

    Woody Wrap

    Cool! I'm all for full wraps. Here's mine:
  21. Never heard of it or seen reported in European Transit Connect fora.
