The limited slip 4.10 rear axle and the 10,360 GVWR make it the only choice for the hills the SCruz team drive on a daily basis.
Another Transit it is..

the Problem with a GVWR of over 10k is that you are subject to more taxes and regulations; however with all the tools you carry its safer then overloading a lesser vehicle.

Front is not an option with the Ford, as rear is not an option with the RAM

Why not another AT ? You have an 04 that you can get 20 grand for after 14 years. What is the resale on a 2004 model van/slidein combo? Not anywhere near that.

We need something smaller..
and that monster above is too big..
The mid roof, long wheel base is also available with the 4.10 limited slip and a 9500 GVWR..

It will be a culture shock.
Can you just get a smaller box?

I'm loving my mid-roof long wheel base transit. I dont have the extra long body tho. I also LOVE my eco boost. Unless you get a hell of a deal on a 3.7 I'd get an eco boost, especially if your pulling lots of hills.

Ecoboost is nice to have. She has plenty of getup and go for the freeway and hills your guys encounter.

Still wish I could talk you into an Express or ProMaster, but I'm glad you are getting hooked up with what you need. What truckmount did you decide on?

No it's the standard. I wish it were 250 but so far it hasn't been too big a deal.

That step down is odd, is that really where the battery is supposed to go?
