Compare and contrast the 2023 Ford Transit Connect city van with another great minivan, the Chrysler Pacifica.

Since the last Ford Freestar left the factory in 2007, Ford has not produced any minivans.

But Ford also offers a very comparable vehicle, the Transit Connect.

There's a lot to appreciate about this city van, but how does it stack up against a class leader like the Chrysler Pacifica?

There are several benefits to owning a 2023 Ford Transit Connect.
