2008 Ford E-350 Handicapped Conversion Van
We bought this van used with around 30,000 miles on it in 2010 and had the handicapped equipment added to it in order to transport my father. It is in fantastic shape overall. It runs and drives great. The body is in excellent condition. There are no known mechanical problems. It has served us well. The van currently has 43,382 miles
The handicapped equipment was purchased from and installed by Mobility Headquarters in Houston, TX. They did a fantastic job and the equipment installed has proven itself. The lift in the side door is made by VMI. It is hydraulic powered by the van's 12V battery. It folds up so that you can safely close the doors. When you want to use it, open the double side doors and automatically fold it down, then lower it with the wired remote. The rider can then either stand on the lift, which has handrails built in, or ride onto the ramp with their standard sized wheelchair or scooter. The ramp itself is 30" wide with a lip on the left and right side, and a lip on the outer edge to keep the chair from rolling off. This lip folds down to allow entry, but folds up and locks as soon as the ramp starts to go up. You can bring the ramp up either with the remote or with a switch built into the left handhold. At the top, the rider can either step off the ramp or roll off the ramp and move on to the inside. Then you fold the ramp up using the remote control.
The rear ramp is made by Harmar Mobility and is made to haul a wheelchair or scooter. It raises and lowers with an electrical motor. It has a remote control. Push a button to bring the ramp back then down, load up your scooter or wheelchair. There are straps included to keep the chair from moving around. Strap it down(or don't, I never did), push the up button and it comes up and into the van, keeping your scooter dry and safe inside.
Seating: Currently, the only seats installed in the van are 2 captains chairs in the front. This auction includes all seats I have for the van. It originally came with 2 bench seats in the rear, which are included. We also purchased used but in good condition captains chairs to install in the rear, which are also included. I believe we paid $750 for the 2 captains chairs we never used. Neither of these options worked for my dad, so we built a bracket out of heavy flatbar and installed a recliner in the rear for him and installed a seatbelt that fit on the recliner. The recliner has been removed from the van. The bracket we built remains, as does the seat belt. You can have the recliner we installed into the van as well if you like. It is large and very comfortable, especially when the van is in motion.
The Engine on the van starts up immediately, runs perfectly, does not smoke, is smooth and powerful, and runs as well as new. The transmission shifts perfectly. The tires are all Michelin LTX M/S 10 ply tires and have around 40% tread left on them. The van drives straight down the road and is surprisingly easy to handle. The A/C works well and is very cold. All controls are in the front, but the rear has a separate blower. The radio is AM / FM / CD. It also has power windows, power locks, driver and passenger airbags, cruise control, RCS, side steps, and a receiver hitch for towing. The seats are comfortable and in great shape. The carpet has a big dirty spot where I am assuming they spilled hydraulic fluid when the side lift was installed. It has been cleaned twice and disappears but comes back after a while. I would venture to guess that one could get it out if done enough times, but it never bothered us that much so we didn't do a lot about it. This is the biggest and really the only defect on the van that I can think of. As I stated, it looks great, operates like an almost new automobile, rides well, and is comfortable to ride in.
The van is located at my business in Carmine, TX 78932. Carmine is directly between Houston and Austin on Highway 290. The van and my business are on Hwy 290, so it's easy to find. I am here almost every day all day, and can meet you pretty well anytime if you want to see it in person. You won't be disappointed. If you have any questions at all, feel free to email me or give me a call on my cell phone at 979-249-6267. My name is Bradley. If I don't answer, leave a message and I will get back to you pretty quickly.

Ford C-Max Commercial Brings Cadillac 'Poolside' Ad Down To Earth
Thu, Mar 27 2014If we had tried to predict the first video response to the controversial Poolside video for the Cadillac ELR, we would not have thought it would center on compost. But, hey, it's always nice to be reminded that the real world is sometimes better than fiction. Instead of the chic swagger of 'Poolside,' 'Anything Is Possible' is all about getting dirty. The new short in question is called Upside: Anything Is Possible and it promotes two things: Detroit Dirt and the Ford C-Max Energi. As in the ELR ad, Ford's plug-in C-Max only makes an appearance at the tail end of the spot, but instead of the chic swagger of Poolside, Anything Is Possible is all about getting dirty. The ad stars Pashon Murray, co-founder of Detroit Dirt, which takes natural waste from around Detroit, composts it into soil and then spreads that around "forgotten parcels" of Detroit to create urban farms. Detroit Dirt gets its bio-waste from a lot of sources, including the Detroit Zoological Society (all that herbivore manure has to go somewhere), Ford and General Motors, but this particular ad was the idea of Ford's PR agency, Team Detroit. It was a frenetic shoot, filmed with an LA-based director right after a big winter storm blew through Detroit, and Murray couldn't be happier with the result. "This was Ford Motor Company pushing my story, letting me tell the story that I believe in," Murray tells AutoblogGreen. "I get to help push this car and I get to tell my story." She says that the Team Detroit and Ford had to agree on the message, "from my understanding, [YouTube] is where they wanted to start, not where they wanted to finish." The ad is already getting a positive response on Twitter, so we won't be surprised if it shows up in more places soon. "It's not saying Ford is better than GM. It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." As Detroit Dirt has off-screen support from both GM and Ford, it's unsurprising to hear Murray say that the video "is not a rivalry thing." She notes that the ad agency Team Detroit came to her and offered to tell the Detroit Dirt story using the framework of the GM ad. "It's a parody on this commercial, but it's not saying Ford is better than GM," she said. "It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." What is that story? It's about urban farming, recovery and recycling. Murray tells us that for the last seven or eight years, she's been dedicated to sustainability.
Latest Forza Horizon 3 car pack features a Skyline and a fast Swedish wagon
Tue, Jan 3 2017The steady stream of Forza Horizon 3 car packs shows no signs of slowing down, and the latest Rockstar Energy Drink pack includes enthusiast favorites such as the R31 Skyline and the Volvo V60 Polestar. The car pack also features a couple of sporty two-doors and some off-road oriented machines. Luxury-minded players will be pleased to see both the Bentley Bentayga and BMW i8 make an appearance. People more concerned with ultimate performance will have a different pair to consider. Players will want to check out the Ford trophy truck for busting dunes, and the Radical RXC Turbo for race-car levels of pavement performance. Finally, yet another classic Aussie muscle car appears in the pack: the 1972 Ford Falcon XA GT-HO. For those interested in the new rides, this car pack is included in the Forza Horizon 3 Car Pass, or can be purchased on its own. If only one or two vehicles are must-haves, it's also possible to purchase the cars individually.
