I bought my Promaster 1500, 136" WB, high roof, gas engine the end of December 2013. I originally ordered it in July and had to wait 6 months for the specific options I wanted. I was a bit upset about the wait because I had to spend an additional $2500 to keep my old van operating during that time. I must say though it was worth the wait.
Things I love about the Promaster:
Things I love about the Promaster:
- short turning radius
- front wheel drive handles very well on slippery roads
- 17.4 MPG after 7000 miles
- very peppy and responsive
- great braking
- wide dimension (54") between the wheel wells
- elevated view of roadway
- many storage nooks on doors and dash
- quiet and cushy ride for a truck
- It seems higher then my old Ford E 250, harder to get in and out of
- brakes squeak occasionally
