Ram ProMaster Vs Ford Transit

This is a competitive comparison of the Ram ProMaster and Ford Transit Class 2 Cargo Vans. The Ram ProMaster Wheel Drive provides many advantages such as lower load floor, ample cargo capacity, and tight turning radius. These work vans are great for many trades including everything from plumbers and electricians to general contractors. The Ram ProMaster competes in the Class 2 Van Segment with not only the Ford Transit, but also the Chevy Express Van, the Nissan NV, and the Mercedes Sprinter. Standard Bluetooth as well as Back Up Camera help keep drivers safer when they are out on the road. With Fall Commercial Truck and Van Season Coming no better time to consider an additional Work Van or Vans for your Company. This Comparison dives into every day examples of differences between the ProMaster and Transit. Of course both vans have lots of upfit options from shelving to ladder racks.

[@bobbarton1777]

I own 5 promasters, 4 gas models and 1 diesel. I also own 3 Transits, 2 with 3.7 and 1 with the 3.5. I have had transmission problems with all three Transits. I have had 1 cylinder head issue with 1 of the promasters. All of the Vans have over 250,000 miles. I prefer the promasters. Cheaper to buy and cheaper to repair better fuel mileage and better payload.

[@Floof_Factory]

Which gave our first? The promaster cylinder head or the transit transmission?

[@charlesking678]

Having driven both as plumbing vans, I would hands take the transit ecoboost. Much more comfortable and better ride, plus with the ecoboost the fuel economy is much better. I regularly get 18mpg in the transit loaded up. With the promaster the v6 feels underpowered and transmission while worked felt like it was slipping on steep inclines. Definitely transit with ecoboost for me.

You are a salesman for the Promaster, not a reviewer. This is not a review its a sales pitch. So your title is misrepresentation. Title is misrepresented. Audio is amateur work and bad. Video is 240 resolution, which means you do not know how to load at higher res, or you own outdated filming equipment. And we should trust your biased 'review' of a van which has many documented (in these comments and other places on KZbin) issues with the cheap plastic parts used in their suspension, as per unhappy Promaster owners. The fact that you have to make a pitch for this van based on a bumper design (incorrect assertion about the Transit), is sad.

[@Sarasdad91]

Okay then, let me give you a real review from someone who owns the ProMaster. I have never owned a Ford Transit due to the plastic drive shaft coupling problems having to be replaced every 30,000 miles, and them breaking and causing transmission damage, so I stayed away from them. I have driven a 2014, 2015, 2018, ProMaster and now I own a 2019. I would not have bought the ProMaster if I didn't think it was a a very good van, because I move LTL freight all over the US and the van is my livelihood. I've heard many complaints about the Ford Transit because of the drive shaft coupling problem, and the ProMaster is not perfect it has its issues but they're very small in comparison to any major problems. These things are known for going 400,000 miles and more if they're well maintained. Many other people I know that drive the same van contracting with the same company are pretty happy with them as well. However I would like to add, that Ford has fixed the drive shaft coupling problems so the Ford Transit may be worth a second thought.

[@lass-inangeles7564]

@@Sarasdad91 Good to know. I stand corrected. The Promaster had some cheap components that people were not happy with, so my bias formed.

[@keldonator]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@michaelrs8010]

Because of cost I've been researching between the ProMaster and the Transit and this is the conclusion that I have come to; What I have determined is it is not a choice between the best one based on features, but rather which one SUCKS THE LEAST as evident by recalls and ongoing mechanical problems. However, I still haven't figured out which one that is.

[@hangngoaigiare]

agree. these are working van that need to be least problem and last not a comfort junk.

[@Floof_Factory]

@@hangngoaigiare the Nissan NV is the most reliable one. The problem is that they dont come with cargo space longer than 121". They dont meet the industry minimum of 3000 payload and 144" cargo length

[@satchmodog2]

Yessir. All of these manufacturers have switched to four and 6 cylinder engines with turbos and low torque and they simply don't cut it for a large number of us. You need that torque and you ideally would like to have your van last 200k. But the manufacturers only really care about fleet sales and streamlining production. It's not a technology race and it's not a boom in innovation, it's a race to the bottom. After 26 years of durable Ford Econolines I had to buy the Nissan NV3500 this year. It's the last year of the v8 even for the Nissan

[@stevejeffrey11]

I have done tons of research the last few years for a dream van camper conversion build. MB Sprinter gets great mpg but only certain MB dealerships would work on it & have expensive hourly rates, plus when they break down, they cost a fortune to be fixed. Promaster has got great reviews by some, and negative from others but I typically stay away from Dodge/Fiat vehicles. A high roof Transit with diesel or eco-boost engine would be my first choice, everybody wants one and they are very hard to find

[@timvatter2559]

How can the Ram only having 2 roof heights VS Transit's have 3 options be an advantage for the Ram?

[@johnnyrambles]

The problem with the Transit roof heights is the mid roof isn't tall enough to stand up in for anyone close to 6' tall, but the high roof transit is so tall it's overkill unless you're an NBA player. The Promaster high roof has 6'4" of clearance, but the overall height is far less than the high roof transit due to the lower floor height.

[@johnnyrambles]

It's obvious the guy is selling Promasters, but that said my 2015 Promaster has been an outstanding vehicle. No major mechanical issues, gets close to 20 mpg on the highway and pulls my 7x12 enclosed trailer perfectly. I had driven Ford E Series vans for years and they were great, but I would never go back. The best part about the Promaster over the Transit is the powertrain has been used in so many Chrysler vehicles that years down the road if I ever need major engine or transmission work I can source one ridiculously cheap out of just about any of the FWD Chrysler products. The V6 is the same as those in the mini vans, Journey, Charger, etc.

[@lethargicstove2024]

@@hangngoaigiare I think you should go with the Transit, the 3.7 is a pretty robust engine and was used in police interceptor versions of the Taurus and Explorer, so the engine is reliable besides some water pump issues, the transmission is also pretty good as long as you maintain the fluid, my dad has had put 100,000 miles on his and he bought it at 20k miles only issues were drive shaft coupler, rusted drive shaft, and a fuel pump.

[@robertmills2900]

My job has a Promaster that I drive regularly. It's 1 1/2 years old, 14000 miles. In that time... Engine malfunction twice, stock tires wore out in the first 5000 miles, transmission malfunction once, left headlight failed twice, power locks on cargo doors failed once, Chrysler fit and finish/quality has been exceedingly poor for years, this is not a "comparison"... I have no real opinion on the Transit because I've never had the opportunity to drive one, but I will say that Ford reliability has exceeded Chrysler for at least the last two decades.

well i never drive a ram van. i been driving a ford and chevy van. the ford i have is about 90k mile now since i got it new. it give me all kind of problem and noise and i can see lot of dump design since i can try fix it myself. so hope that promaster is better but look like it doesn't so sad. these dump engineers can't finger how to build thing last. i wish toyota build van. dont like the Nissan vans with so stupid shape.

The cost to operate either of these vans for 150,000 miles of fleet use is much higher than ththe Chevy express van with the 4.3v6,4.8 V8 or 6.0 V8 they are much better vans and have very few problems .They handle being loaded to the max much better than the prostar and better than the transit.

[@juanzingarello4005]

Based on contractor reviews it seems like the most reliable of all the vans is the Mercedes/Freightliner Sprinter. The problem with the Sprinter is that its expensive to buy and expensive to maintain. But sometimes it may payoff to spend extra on a van that will leave you with less downtime. Next on the list is the Express/Savana, then NV, then Transit, then ProMaster at the very bottom. It almost seems like FCA goes out of their way to hold the bottom spots of all these reliability lists whether its JD Power, Consumer Reports, or simply a bunch of contractors and service people giving reviews.

[@SSorgears]

OK - this guy has lost some cred with me right off the start... Transit has a step in the front bumper too. Seem like he is just trying to make the Promaster look better... Fiat products are not know for super-reliability, and the reviews on the transmission on the Promaster reveal how scary it can be to drive one. I shopped both of these vehicles, and bought the Transit. Far superior, IMO.

Let's not forget the RAM is front wheel drive with 3 inches of ground clearance under the real solid axle. Oh ya and it's a FIAT!!!

[@marks6663]

lol. If the axle is only 3 inches off the ground, then the tire must be about 6 inches in diameter. What are you smoking?

[@gary19222]

@@marks6663 look at it next time your behind one. The rear axle is offset. Like the opposite of a portal axle.

MB vans rust buckets.. Dodges. Buy your parts in the Tupperware department at Walmart. Ford Transit does what it was designed for.

[@kenlang3462]

What comparison? This dude is a salesman for the Promaster. What I will say is that in nearly 220K over the road in a '17 Ford Transit 250 cargo van, beware of the Transit. It's TERRIBLE in the snow even hauling 2K in customer's freight. Grade: F- . Exercise extreme caution running empty. There's issues with the rear axle, two recalls with the drive shaft, the seats squeak, and the baffles within the muffler rattle. Good luck in your search.

[@Floof_Factory]

Yeah I heard for the rear differentials its bad. Als for snow, you definitely want to get bfg ko2 tires or chains. They last longer. Also upgrade the suspensions from the stock to a bilstien shocks

All Chrysler products are garbage . The pentastar in my Ram 1500 had check engine, limp mode, cam phaser issues in at least 4x under warranty they never could fix it and I had to turn in the 3 year lease ( $3000 at signing ) instead of the buy out option of only $22k. I lost tons of money and time. I called Chrysler customer number , they were no help dealer was rude... Never again . I hope you never sell a truck again and get what you have coming .....!!!

[@zakkul6242]

The ram pro master is sure damn ugly but I do give them credit for providing cargo van competition for its consumers. GM unfortunately can’t come up with nothing at this point 🤷‍♂️

[@tavo2422]

Transit all they way. Won't touch the Fiat Promaster.

They are both unreliable vehicles. This motor and trans is the same as the mini van. Ram is under powered and has a trans problem. They are also terrible off pavement. The transit has torque converter, motor, trans, and sensor problems. GM makes the best tower and power train, but no high roof. The oil consumption issue is a minefield. Maybe a GM van with an after market high roof or cut away box is the answer, before they try to be an unreliable sprinter too. I have been a ram driver my whole adult life and I’m 60. My ram 1500 4x4 had it’s transmission replace under extended warranty, at 100,000 miles. It is having an intermittent shift problem again at 132,000 miles. They can not get it to do it, in a five minute drive, so they can’t / won’t fix it. Hemi’s are another issue. I had the exhaust manifold clicking fixed a couple times. I am happy I haven’t had the lifter roller pin problem yet. A lot of my friends did have that issue. I can not buy another tow vehicle because prices are now through the roof, and all three car companies are selling unreliability. So I am driving on borrowed time. All the diesels have the garbage DEV systems: also unreliable. The new hundred gears transmission are also not reliable. A guess a used is the answer.
