You were not the first one in Arizona! I drove my XLT home on Saturday, July 25, 2009 from San Tan Ford in Gilbert. So far the truck is doing fine and I have had as much as 1500lbs. of cargo loaded in. The mileage for me has been arond 22 - 23 MPG city and highway.
I have had many people stop me and ask what is that vehicle? Many thought it was a clever and useful design! So far the vehicle has perfomed excellent for me.
That is the same program they had last month and I received 0% for 36 months with $0 down through Ford Credit! Purchased my Transit Connect July 25, 2009 in Gilbert, AZ.
I purchased a Transit Connect XLT on Saturday, July 25, 2009, in Gilbert, AZ. There are about 8-12 units around at local dealers. So far, the little truck is perfoming well.
