Does Ford have any intention of bringing the TRANSIT van from Europe to the USA?

Currently they sell the Transit's baby brother, the Transit Connect... so when is the Transit coming to give the Mercedes/Dodge/Freightliner Sprinter some competition?
 
UM--I have no clue---unless the president of FORD tells us--how would any of us know?? If you want a possible "good answer"--ASK AT A FORD DEALERSHIP in your area. They are test marketing that tiny version---so maybe if it sells well, they will bring its big brother. OR--maybe BIG brother cannot pass AMERICAN standards. The Sprinter is ALL Mercedes---given one or two AMERICAN names to get them accepted into this country----the test on MERCEDES SPRINTER showed the name caused people NOT to buy it when first introduced here. The public wanted a familiar--substantial name. Like Chevy and GMC--same truck--just a different set of plastic name tags. Its all in public percetion and loyalty to a certain brand name. VERY CLEVER MARKETING!!
