All the parts of the rear air system are available from Ford parts dept for the E-series vans. You do not have to buy the Club Wagon to have rear air.
Tire size for the E350 is 245/75-16E, on our 2005 anyways.
The full size Transit van does indeed sound very interesting. I like the little Transit Connect. :)
GM and Dodge have a long row to hoe if they ever want to catch Ford's F150, Ecoboost engine and HD Payload/Max Tow package trucks.
I found that true when I ordered the cargo version in my signature. I even got the SS swing out "rec" mirrors. The only option I couldn't get was the multiple CD player (0nly the single) and that was because of how the options packages were listed. My Van has every option available except IIRC the Al. wheels, rear second Heat/AC pkg, dual alts, the aux fuel port and PTO(I think that was an option). I might have missed something but this was over 12 years ago. I was able to get the one up front GAWR and AIC that are/were popular on the ambulance prep pkgs. I have the full headliner, carpeting, running boards, power everything, cloth bucket captains chairs, chrome bumpers and step towing bumper, etc., etc. It did take some finesse to get somethings like the SS "rec" towing mirrors could only be added if you picked a couple of the other options in a particular order:E ... so that was just a quirk in the ordering system that one had to get around so to speak.
I've been towing/RVing with a full sized Van since the late 70's and think they can't be beat unless you are going really heavy or long in a bumper pull trailer.
