Funny - we'll have to retrain ourselves to say that instead! It certainly fits better.

Re: Our 2015 Ford Transit is now a Sportsmobile!

Congrat's and I'm jealous. We're finally scheduled to pick up our 'Lunar Sky' Transit in 3 weeks, from Fresno. It sounds like yours went a lot faster than ours. We started the process in March. It took months to get the pop top prototyped and built and then the pop top fabric had delays.
It looks like you got a swivel seat for the passenger side. We were told the swivels were not tested or available yet.
But now we're finally going to get our "Flying Pig Mobile".
We'll have to compare notes.

Cheers

The Benz has four wheel drive with low range. Does the Ford Transit have four wheel drive with low range?

I believe that the Quigley 4x4 conversion will have high and low 4x4 and probably has manual locking hubs. They are supposed to be using the same basic setup as the newer F150 pickup.
