Overland Classifieds :: 2022 Ford Transit AWD

The Ford Transit AWD is a popular commercial workhorse and recreational vehicle. The introduction of the Trail model and a factory-fitted “Adventure Prep Package” further demonstrated Ford’s focus on both the vanlife and the overlanding communities. A capable AWD system matched with a powerful yet relatively economical EcoBoost motor, a well-equipped cabin, and a generous interior living space are just some of the reasons this vehicle has become so popular. Subsequently, it’s an increasingly in-demand option on our forum, with recent examples including this 2016 Quigley 4×4, a 2017 T-350 Quigley 4×4 with a Vandoit camper conversion, and a 2019 Quadvan. Sure, the Transit is no Wrangler, but the AWD system does a good job when faced with loose surfaces and uneven terrain (as demonstrated on the Expedition Portal YouTube channel). If you’d like a better idea of how this platform performs as a rolling home, check out the inspiring builds from Alces ADV, Wilderness Vans, and We’re the Russos. Today’s 2022 offering has covered just 10,000 miles and features a long list of optional extras from the factory, premium aftermarket modifications, and is still under warranty.

From the Seller:

This go-anywhere adventure van is ready for backcountry travel. Air down and hit the dirt, sand, or snow; you’ll be ready for all-weather. No scratches, no dings, no dents. Mint condition throughout.”

2022 Ford Transit AWD

The Transit is fitted with a 3.5-liter EcoBoost that produces 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. A powerful yet relatively frugal motor provides surprisingly brisk on-road performance with a 0 to 60 mph sprint of just 6.8 seconds. In addition, this platform showcases a reasonable level of all-terrain capability thanks to an intelligent AWD system that swaps seamlessly from rear-wheel drive to AWD if it detects a loss in traction. Inside, the Transit is well-equipped with comforts that include:

  • Cruise control
  • Power steering, windows, locks, and mirrors
  • Infotainment system with navigation
  • Powered and heated Scheel-Mann swivel seats
  • Air conditioning
