Thinking of swapping my old Silverado for a Transit to tow a small trailer (under 6,000 lbs), for weekend camping and to carry my dual sport bike. I want to keep the interior simple with few changes and am looking for a factory finish, mid roof, 148 wheelbase, and EcoBoost.

Any ventilation problems or issues with the full glass options on the 150 or 250?
 
I think you're gonna love the Transit!
That EcoBoost has more than enough grunt for a 6k trailer, you'll be surprised, and it's definitely the engine you want for towing!
As for the windows, get some sort of a fan setup to get air moving, especially with the full glass.
The slider windows on the passenger side are a popular option for cross-ventilation, but a roof vent fan like a MaxxAir or Fantastic Fan should do better for keeping it from getting stuffy in there.
The full glass can get hot in the sun, but good window coverings or a reflective sunscreen will help a lot.
