The first several Transit based RV's are coming out on the 156" wheelbase cutaway, not on the longer 178" one. I can see why. The long wheelbase doesn't give any better weight capacity, so why go to the extra expense? Also, any C on that chassis would be a direct competitor to ones on the Sprinter.
I hope Ford ups the ratings on the longer chassis so RV builders can make a unit that tops the Sprinter units. The Sprinter has gone a long time without any real updating, and in my opinion, has really gotten old. Seating, climate control, brakes are all pretty bad.
By the way, Ford does not offer the EcoBoost in the cutaway, only the regular gasser or the diesel
