Actually, that Bosch part # (15 725) is listed by Bosch as "Oxygen Sensor
Universal" and sells for $48.83 (at least that's what I sell them for).

The Bosch O2 sensor for the Ford is a 13 913 and sells for $31.56 but
doesn't come with the fancy connectors for splicing into your existing
harness.

And finally, there's the official O2 sensor for the Vanagon (Bosch 13 957),
but that bad boy is $123.90, ouch.

Cheers,

Technically, Bosch does not offer a "universal" 3 wire sensor (at least one
doesn't show in their latest references I have).  However, Bus Depot offers
a Bosch made 3 wire sensor originally intended for a Ford that works just
fine at an affordable price with all the necessary pieces for splicing.
Their PN is 15725 and the price is $59.95 (less the list discount) - much
better than the $150 that Bosch shows as the factory replacement.
