I purchased this Van about 2 years ago with 57k miles on it. It is a rare option van because its a 3/4 TON suspension with a 4.2litre V6 engine that has plenty of power. I have maintained the van very well since ownership. Heres a list of what ive done.
Alternator, Radiator, Left Upper Ball joint, Transmission service with new filter and gasket, rotated tires several times, several oil changes, 6 new spark plugs, 1 vacuum line, 2 transmission cooler lines and 1 engine belt.
The van does not leak a drop of oil!
I took pictures of 3 things that bother me and I would like to be honest with the new owner of this VAN.
I bought new door hinge pin for drivers door but have not installed it yet. I will include the parts with the van. Has typical loose drivers side door hinge play.
Theres some minor roof rust near the rear doors which I have noted in the photos and ive been attacking slowly with sealers and what not when i had some left in a jar or something from a job i was doing.
I havent aligned the front end since I purchased the Van 2+ years ago and has a little shimy at high speeds like 70mph+.
This van runs and drives like new. If you need a reliable work truck with very low miles and knowing "where" you purchased it from this ones for you. It comes with aluminum running boards, 8 lug alloy rims, brushguard with working grill lights, I installed a 1000watt amp under driver seat and I have 12 inch sub in back of van, I also installed 250+ decibal Kahlenberg airhorns that I run off a scuba tank w/regulator behind drivers seat. I also notice the rear bumber is attached directly to the FRAME from the factory so towing is never an issue.
I can remove before pickup of vehicle.
Please feel free to ask me a question at 954 FIVE SIX TWO 1177 with any questions. I have title with van located in zip code 32958 FL.
I own two other vehicles and its decided that this one goes. A new baby girl to the family has forced transportation changes so dont miss out on this clean van.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
