D. Phelps Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Hey all... new to the Ford Transit party... I just purchased mine for road trips to the south east with my dog. I did my 1st trip over the 4th and found the ride very comfortable. My 1st repair was replacing the drivers latch, so my radio would turn off when I exited the vehicle. Since my plan is to have a vehicle that allows me to haul home improvement supplies... I added after market roof rails I found on eBay. I also added some sound deadening to the cargo area and all the doors. I am mainly here for insight on other minor modifications to make my trips more enjoyable. mrtn and budo675 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty150 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Window tint helps. Some people have added power ports and upgraded the radio. There is a mod to raise the driver's seat. Depending on what you plan on doing, an LED light bar could be useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Phelps Posted July 12, 2023 Author Share Posted July 12, 2023 I did tint the rear and side windows on the sliding doors. I ordered an air mattress and sleeping bag in case the 14 hour trips get to long. So far the TC seems to be a solid vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every once in awhile, someone needs to reset their transmission module's learning curve. The leaking windshield recall helped me out a lot........ because mine was leaking.

bluemoon72 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Hi! What did you do to get the radio to turn off? I've had my 2020 TC 7PW for a few days and half the time when I turn the ignition off and leave and lock the vehicle, the radio is still playing. Why is this?!?
