about

Yep, road tested, no getting around that! This van was part of a hotel shuttle fleet in the Phoenix Arizona area, used to haul passengers from hotels to the airport. It basically ran 24-7 except when in for service and maintenance. The van looks very clean both inside and out, it runs very well, has not seen road salt, and we just replaced the transmission with one that has far less mileage.

This van still runs very strong and it has the smaller 4.6 motor on purpose for better city fuel economy. If you run a transport business this is a sound vehicle that looks good and fits a short budget. We have 2 in stock, this one has a littler higher mileage than the other, but the condition is identical and transmission is a bonus.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
exterior

The paint and body on this van are very presentable for the mileage. Arizona is simply not hard on their vehicles like a lot of the country. There's no rust, hail, or body damage at all. It's not brand new, but it does look quite straight. The wheel covers are new, tires all have good tread and there's no cracks in the glass. The front end has a little pitting and there's a small bump on the right front fender edge, and otherwise a few small marks, nicks, etc, but generally it looks more like a well kept sub-100k van. The doors all open and close fine, bumpers are straight, and undercarriage isn't puking any fluids.

interior

The interior is in fair condition. The drivers seat was worn when it came in, so we re-upholstered the base. The arm rest is out of the vehicle on that side, but I believe we have it and can replace it. The passenger compartment looks decent, little normal aging/wear, but nothing too bad, I don't think anybody would notice the wear as a customer. The cargo compartment does have lots of marks as expected, being that it frequently hauled baggage. This van has cold front and rear air, power options, and keyless. Everything works. We did replace that missing A/C knob, we keep those in stock, pretty common for them to come off. It's comfy inside and doesn't smell like smoke.

mechanical

This van runs out very well and came in that way, but the transmission had grenaded before we bought it. We've seen the V8 triton motors do 500k before breaking, but you can expect Ford transmissions to go out 200-300k miles even with routine fluid changes, it's just a wearable item. The one we replaced it with has about 85-90k miles and was a local Colorado vehicle. The van fires right up, drives straight, shifts smooth, and feels pretty tight overall. It has decent power, no warning lights on the dash, and the motor is quiet. The brake pad life is over 50% remaining, belt and hoses fine and it isn't leaking anything noticeable. It has a little normal crusty seepage, we did change the oil.

There's no uneven tire wear and shocks feel fine. The right side lower ball joint has some play, but you wouldn't know by driving it. We can do a set of ball joints and have it aligned if you like, call for pricing. The low tire light is on, but it has good pressure all the way around, we don't fuss with them. Lastly, the shifter lever is a little floppy just from the mileage on the column, it's safe, and will last a long time, it just feels a little loose when you drop it into gear, really very common on these and not a mechanical issue, just a condition.

About Us

Denver Fleet is located just 10 minutes from Downtown Denver on the I-70 corridor. We are a small detail-oriented firm that specializes in the sale of pre-owned commercial fleet and lease vehicles, work trucks, vans, service vehicles and hard-to-find automobiles. We also build and sell full size 4WD vans. Please don't hesitate to give us a shout and let us know how we can help outfit you / your company with the right vehicle.

Vehicle Inspection + Service

Buyer reserves right to an inspection before purchase is finalized. We service everything we sell and make sure our vehicles are safe. We're not perfect, but we're darn good. We don't sell new or perfect cars. We sell good cars at exceptional value. We change the oil and filter in every vehicle, diesels get new fuel filters too. We know you expect us to be reasonable and we expect the same of you.

Payment

We're easy to get along with, but we need to know if you need special payment accommodation before you purchase. Our terms are flexible, so if you need time to either pickup the vehicle or extended payment terms all you need is ask. For several reasons, we do not accept American Express.

Fine print: Successful bidder must contact us within 2 days of the close of the auction, and must submit a deposit of $500 within 3 days. Remaining balance is to be paid within 10 days of the close of the auction. We accept Paypal (For Down Payments Only), Master Card, Discover, Visa, Debit-Cards, Bank Wire Transfers, Money Order, Cashiers Check, Cash in Person, and you can call with any other offers. We're very easy to get along with.

Delivery/Shipping

Pick it up: We regularly pick up people at Denver International Airport (DEN) free of charge and bring them to the lot for pickup. The airport is about 20 minutes from our shop. We do not offer airport pickup on Saturday or Sunday. Saturday we do not have a driver, and Sunday we are closed by law, no exceptions! There are no additional charges for pickup.

Ship it: We have a local shipping company that we've done business with for many years and they have reasonable pricing. You can also visit Dependable Auto Shippers, their local terminal is pretty close to us, so we can drop the vehicle there free of charge. Call us for a shipping quote if you need one.

Financing Options

Denver Fleet can provide financing for customers with good credit in Colorado only. We do not currently offer any out of state financing, however if you have decent credit, just visit your local credit union and you'll have no problem obtaining a loan for an out of state vehicle.

There are several online companies that offer financing as well, just Google 'vehicle financing' or 'auto loans' At 5.99% with $0 down for 60 months, each $1,000 costs you roughly $19.32 per month. There are institutions lending as low as 1-3% for highly qualified customers.

Dealer Disclosure (more fine print you should probably read)

We do our very best to describe the vehicles as they really are and the options they have, though everyone has a different opinion of what a condition might be. Please examine all the photos carefully and read the full text of the advertisement. Denver Fleet reserves the right to sell the vehicle at any time before a deposit has been left on the vehicle, even when the reserve has been met. Denver Fleet also reserves the right to end the auction early. We sell many of our vehicles before the end of the auction. Feel free to call with any questions.

It is our experience and our volume that allows us to sell vehicles at lower prices than most businesses on EBay or off, but please know that the phrase "You get what you pay for." is constant in both the real world and the car business. All vehicles are sold "AS IS" unless otherwise specified. Local residents of Colorado must pay taxes at our dealership, but will not have to pay them again when going to register the vehicle.
There is a $249 transfer and handling fee that applies to all sales both in state and out.

Again, all vehicles are for sale locally, and before the end of the auction. Just because you are the high bidder doesn't mean you have the vehicle reserved. EBay allows us the option of ending auctions early because all vehicle are for sale at any point during the auction. If you are concerned, the buy it now option is always a good idea. In very rare instances, the vehicle is being sold locally while someone has pressed the buy it now. You're welcome to call before you bid, we thank you, Happy EBaying
