First, I'm spec'ing a new Ford RB 4x4 E350 van. I have lots of questions,
1 V10 gas engine or 6.0L PSD? I read the threads, not coherent. I won't pull a trailer and speed is important to me on paved roads. I do a lot of off road, all terrain (mountains / desert).
2. Should i get the bigger RF 4E over the RF 3E- 4e has a usuable freezer?
3. Should I get wet locker and store spare outside? If this design interferes with having a wet locker, should i redesign to get the locker? The design is item 4 below.
4. I want a walkway from front to back ....similar to RB 31 plan ....... so I have a gaucho bed behind driver seat along with storage cabs. The galley - sink, no propane cooktop, more storage on passenger van side. Will use portable propane stoves stored in door pantry.
5. New Fords come with limited slip rear diff - should I change this to locking type and put ARB on front, or just front only? Or what?
6. Onboard or portable aircompressor?
7. Flat Plate for hot water? Is there better way?
8. Espar airtronic heater runs off diesal - or gas?
9. What does floating rear diff do for me - is it worth it?
10. Is solar panel worth it?
