This isn't really in my business budget at the time but I could use funds from my other job to purchase it. Just kicking tires and wondering if it's worth looking into?

Only you know that. We all need goals, nothing wrong with streaming to achieve them, provided it doesn't burden your household budget.

If you need it, go for it. Remember at a dealership, they're always a little negotiable.

Again, get what’s right for you! If you get a 2500, you’ll be good. It’s hard to get exactly what you want when you buy used. I bought a 16 GMC 2500
at the end of the year. I’m happy for the price and miles. You do you!

says the guy with a WeenieMount
don't know about the Eurofaq models, but not on E series .
Heavier frame and extra spring is the only difference ..and only because it's available in dually with makes it 11000(?) GVW
10,300 for the Transit I see ...my bet is there's no difference

Now why would buy a one ton and not put extra weight in it?
I don't even know Bubbles! I don't know who blew the damn monkey. BUT its wasn't I.

But he already said it wasn’t in his business budget 
Too many miles for that price.
36k warranty on fords, I believe? It's up in 7 thousand miles.
