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 sure hope that Ford keeps offering the cutaway chassis versions of - and suppliers keep supplying parts for - at least the E450.
A portion (how big?) of the U.S. Class C market really needs the current 14,500 GVWR of this chassis. Not all of us care for the new wave of somewhat cramped smallish Class C units that are only good for 2-3 days of non-hookup non-tank-emptying camping time.
The E450 under our Class C just happens to drive smooth and rock solid. One hand on the steering wheel while cruising. We hope to be able to keep it several years yet with full support.
