Ford announced over a year ago that the E series will stop production eventually. At that time, the announcement was tied to the RV production cutaway class as limited and will stop. (They can always make the transit bigger in the next couple of years.) I think they might only produce the E cutaway chassis now.

Only E-series vans have stopped. The cutaway chassis alone is still the 3rd top selling van chassis in the US. Cutaway has been committed through 2019. They did stop selling the lighter under 11,500 GVWR E350 DRWs as those overlapped the Transit offerings.

I would imagine, due to now-limited production of piles of common parts with the E-series van, there could be a cost increase to the cut-away because "volume pricing" on those parts will be no longer.
