  1. I have now had the Transit for exactly two months. Likes - Nice Carlike interior. Lots of space in the back for "stuff". Tall, but not too tall to fit in my garage or get into most parking garages. Also, I like being able to plug my ipod Touch into the Aux jack and play it through the stereo. I like the "distance to empty" meter, it's pretty accurate. I also like the "voice" command and the volume/mode being right by the steering wheel. Dislikes - General lack of power, especially when accelerating onto the highway. Interior noise, I already took one piece of plexiglass down from the passenger side divider and will have to take the driver's side one down also. It just rattles way too much. I wish it had a taller highway gear, it almost makes 3000 rpm at 70 mph. The wiper/washer stalk is backwards/opposite the one on my personal vehicle (2010 Honda Odyssey), so I always flip it the wrong way no matter what vehicle I am driving.
  2. CJ, The Transit is finally IN! I pick it up tomorrow at the Ford Dealer at 11AM. I hope it is worth the 7 month wait! Matto
  3. CJ, Good luck with the vehicle - the last call I made to Wheels they said the vehicle delivery date was November 8th. Matto
  4. Well, it is now October 20th. I still do not have the Transit Connect. What about you, CJ? Matto
  5. BrianJ71, I am in Missouri, St. Louis Branch. Still have not heard from anyone on the vehicle, the fuel card has been here since early July. Matto
  6. Thanks for the replies. I have contacted the dealer and all they could say it that it was built on June 23rd. They told me to contact Wheels, Inc. the leasing company used by Siemens. The Wheels rep. gave a date of SEPT. 27 !!!! If it has, as kmoilan1 said, been in the MODCENTER process since July 26, I don't understand why it would take 2 months to get from the MODCENTER to my dealer. The vehicle was ordered March 22. In nine days it will have been 5 months. If the vehicle does not come until 9/27 it will end up being 6 months.
  7. (Previously Incorrectly posted this in the News and Articles forum) I am getting a Transit Connect through Siemens Building Technologies. It was ordered in March. I have been sent a gas card from Wheels, Inc., the company that Siemens leases the vehicles from. I have had the gas card for over a month but have not heard anything about the vehicle arriving. The gas card literature has the full VIN number, so I am assuming the vehicle was built and shipped. The last six digits of the VIN# are 040315. Can anybody in this forum tell by the VIN# an approximate delivery date?
