BUILT FORD TOUGH®

Built and tested to Built Ford Tough Standards, Transit has been subjected to seven million customer-equivalent miles of brutal testing in our labs, proving grounds, on roads and highways across America, at temperature extremes from -40 to 120 degrees fahrenheit. We used trucks driven by robots at the Michigan Proving Grounds facility to conduct tests that are too strenuous for human drivers over an extended period of time, enabling us to compress years of daily abuse into a mere few months. All of which means you can buy with confidence, knowing your Transit RV is backed by our tough vehicle testing standards.

SAFETY TAKES PRIORITY• AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™)

• 4-Wheel Anti-Lock Disc Brakes

• Front Airbags, Side Thorax Airbags, Safety Canopy®

*Remember that even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It’s always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions.
