Re: Ford Transit unveiling at Geneva

The US E Series will be going away. Ford will probably do something similar to what it did with the Crown Vic. The Five Hundred was clearly intended to replace the Crown Vic, but Ford said it wasn't the Crown Vic replacement.
Both cars were offered for several years, during which time the Five Hundred got a few restyles and a name change to Taurus, and now the Crown Vic is gone.
The US used to get a RWD minivan called the Aerostar. Ford started building the FWD Windstar and said it wasn't the Aerostar replacement. After a few years, Aerostar went away and Windstar remained.
This is the first I've heard of a V6 EcoBoost Transit! I'm sure that won't be the standard engine, though.
