Um. It's a car and everyone else is asleep and I'm bored.
So today I decided to move all of my classes so that I would be able to attend an Oil and Gas Expo in Oklahoma City in hopes that I can get an internship accidentally. Initially we were going to get a bus but then we ended up not having enough people and they rented a van for us instead. (A 15-passenger van expected to have 13 people but now we have like 6.) So here goes my reviewing skills.
Exterior: It's a huge ass van. Like I don't even know how to describe it any better. It makes the most out of the large footprint it covers so that's always good. This ain't no F-Type in terms of style but more like the Cube when it goes through puberty.
Interior: It's all hard plastic. The seats have a cloth in it that I'm pretty sure I can use to sand the wooden coffee table I'm making. Um. There's an electric plug on the side I'm sitting on in the second row. Bench seats are useful when everyone has one to sleep on HAHAH. There's only one door and it's really difficult to get in through in my opinion. Can't wait until the new Transit comes to the US and I can go in a school trip on one of those.
Engine: I think it's the V8. There's no badge on the side that says it has a V10 or the engine from the Death Star and it's pretty good for the car. It's smooth it doesn't have weird sounds. Good enough for me in this type of car.
My previous experience with an E-Series Ford was back in high school. It had one of those roof attachments and it was always so loud like they probably chopped off the roof, put in that plastic replacement roof and tied it on because it rattles and makes sounds like holy hell. This one is amazingly quiet and I had a pretty awesome ride here including the one and a half hour blaring of country music because you know, Oklahoma.

Ogawd, that photo. Hey, at least it has Ford's integrated trailer brake controller. Plus, Ford has _finally_ stepped up its radios in the work trucks, looks like your model E has the aux port on the radio fascia. Drive safe, those vans are still the top-heavy monsters they've always been. Like damn, at that ride height I could take a 4x4 E series and turn it into a Sportsmobile.

I helped my girlfriend move yesterday. We rented one of these. I spent like two hours trying to figure out how to turn off the dome light.
Turns out the dimmer switch for the dashboard rear illumination also controls the dome light.
