Hi lads I'm buying a transit hopefully 2010 -2012.i need some advice.i need a lwb for all my tools.i might go for a high roof if I can fit my double ladders inside the van.im trying to do away with a roof rack to save on fuel.its nearly all rolls of plumbing pipe these days so I don't carry much copper.i pull a 800 - 1000kg boat once or twice a month so ill like some torque.my vivaro is 100hp but very weak pulling up the slip.is there any fuel saving between the 5 and 6 speed models.also if I go for fwd is there much drop in torque.the fwd might suit better as the fronts wheels will be on the dry part of the boat slip when retrieving boat.what size engine and model would I be looking for .confused with all transit model codes.ok thanks in advance for replys I've checked a few old post but not git everything o need thanks
