Hello, Everyone.
Just traded in my 2024 Ranger XLT FX4 4x4 (60K miles), and bought the wife & I a 2026 Maverick Hybrid AWD XL and a 2026 Transit T250 3.5L Cargo van.
Wife claimed the Van (LOL - I know I married the *right* one, this time!).
Back in 2003, I ordered a customized Sportsmobile E350 4x4 (never should have let it go), and have had various RV types & combos, since ... thought I'd return to my roots, and while I considered the Winnebago Elora (I'm older; doubt I'm going off-road, where I used to), I just couldn't go with ProMaster. Decided we'd give a go with evolving the T250, despite it's limitations versus 350 and EcoBoost ... Labor Day sales had $6500 off the listed price, and I just couldn't pass it by.

Looking forward to all of your sage advice, and occasional adversarial arguments, so that I fully understand trade-offs, as we go forward.

I'm 66 now, and too old to waste remaining time doing the 'perfect' job; just want a good one, and to avoid abhorrent mistakes!

One of my two remaining bucket list items is to traverse from the far-right upper tip of Canada, all the way across to the western coast of British Columbia (should have 560 hours of PTO to burn, while continuing to part-time work); hoping to do this during April to September of 2028. We'll see. Help me get there!
Neccessary, simple & non-excessive costs are my mantras.
