its not a rumor. Ford is doing is phasing out the full size  Econolines..
the full size Transit will replace it.

ford sells more full size vans than chevy..   the dodge full size  van was
dropped 10 yrs ago and replaced by the Sprinter.

so that means that all those econoline vans will be replaced with thefull
size Transit van.
