2014 Ford Transit Connect

I am really satisfied with overall quality and value of my Transit Connect Wagon

This vehicle nicely fills a niche that others in its class do not offer: cross-over of commercial compact utility with personal/family comfort and use. Transit Connect Wagon fills a niche that in my experience only Ford uniquely offers. Even Ford's version is beginning to get larger, but I hope not much more. Every other manufacturer has missed the ball on keeping a mini-van truly "mini." Toyota and Honda's minivans are mini-busses! Ford Transit Connect Wagon is efficiently sized, and with essential features it is offered at an affordable price. The European flavor adds to the value. It could be improved upon without going over the hump of luxury, but I'm happy it is finally available as is given the delay in its introduction.

I'm currently very happy with the overall comfort and utilitarian functionality of this vehicle. Fit and finish is nice as well as overall ride. The only problem I have is it did not come with rails for a roof rack so we looked into purchasing and were shocked at the $500.00 per rail cost... way too pricey in my honest opinion. Shame on you Ford. We are not a business that can write this off as a business expense so alas we have a rackless Transit.

Would like more comfortable front seats and headlights that shine a longer distance

Mudflaps should be standard on all vehicles, particularly on one this expensive. The design of the convex (wide-angle) side rear-view mirrors is nearly a complete failure. I would have preferred a single flat surface to which I could attach the convex mirror of my choice.

Replaced the driver's seat with a seat that comes out with ease of getting to the car as I am a paraplegic.

Dash board not easy to read, noise is not comfortable. Seats stiff. My other family members not impressed with vehicle. I don't know if resale value will be kept.

Purchased vehicle to provide necessary comfort for our move, and to use only one vehicle when entertaining visitors.

Would like a V-6

All wheel or 4 wheel drive would have been most needed feature not included. Not so much for off-road as getting around town in the winter.
