Hello My name is Rich and I am selling this 1997 Ford Econoline E-150 conversion van. First let me thank you for your interest in this van. Please before bidding review my history of selling and buying on e-bay. While my history is somewhat short,it is perfect. I have sold the last 6 or so cars that I have owned on e-bay. My success rate has been 100%. The reason for that is simple,be fare with people and hopefully they will return the favor by being fare and honest back too you!.At least 3 of the vehicles I have sold over the past 7 yrs. have been to out of state buyers,one from Texas,one from Oaklahoma,and one from Indiana. I live 5 minutes outside of Chicago and 5 minutes from Ohare airport.The reason for this long explaination about my history is simple. These adds cost money and time and I don't wish to waste either your time or my money on someone bidding for fun. If you make a bid please be sure of what you are doing. All I ask is that you follow through with good intentions of buying this vehicle, if you happen to be high bidder.Do your homework and trust, that what I tell you is honest, and please extend me the same.Now about the van.
The van is a 1997 Ford Econoline E150 conversion van.The vehicle has 148262 miles on it. The van is in very good shape,overall and considering it is 16 yrs old I think it is great! The exterior of the van is totally dent and ding free. The paint still shines beautiful and does not have any scratches or rock chips to speak of.There is some rust over the wheel wells and I took pictures of both wheel wells to show that it is not bad! The interior is very clean especially the seats both front and back.The dash and all door panels are excellent and clean.The carpeting in the back has worn and has some discoloration,but not bad considering all of the action the back gets.
The van has the following features.It has a 4.8 Triton V-8 engine,the smaller of the 2 V-8 engines available, better on gas! The van has power everything inc.windows, door locks seats and power mirrors.It has and am/fm cassette,I know a joke! Right? The van has front and rear air which blows cold and heats hot! There is a homemade center console which is great,and behind the front 2 seats is a flat screen t.v with dvd,great for kids!The van has a tow package and a romote starter- alarm too!The van has 2 captains chairs in front and 2 behind- no third row bench seat so the van seats 4.The space in the back has always come in handy for hockey equipment or to haul band equipment while still seating 4. A bench can be purchased for cheap money and bolted down,I never had the need!
The van runs excellent and the tires are strong-Michellins.Everything works mechanically including all the gauges.I cant think of anything the van needs.The title is clear and so is the car-fax,never in an accident. I can not think of anything else,and if you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me and I will be glad to answer as honestly as I can. There will be "no reserve" on this van so whoever is the high bidder-no matter what price will win the auction! Please bid with confidence and please be fare with the rest of the bidders by bidding with 100% intention to buy! Good luck and again thank you. Rich

8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015
Mon, Jan 5 2015Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. – Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip – let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives – you can use more of the car more of the time.
2016 Ford Explorer configurator reveals $30,700* base price, Platinum starts at $52,600*
Wed, Nov 26 2014The a la carte menu for the 2016 Ford Explorer is ready for your... umm... exploring. The first page of the refreshed model's configurator reveals the lineup, including the new Platinum trim, and price increases for three of the carryover models. The base Explorer doesn't change by one red cent: it can still be had for $30,700. The XLT needs $33,400 (a $400 price bump), the Limited goes for $41,300 (a not insignificant $2,900 price increase), and the Sport requires $43,300 (a $200 increase). That new Platinum model goes where no Explorer MSRP has gone before, beginning at $52,600 (*all prices are subject to an $895 destination charge). However, since Ford has put almost everything in it, you can't jack the price up too much further unless you lose your mind in the accessories catalog. You can quickly head that way lower down the order, though. The Limited's price jump appears to be due to the voice-activated navigation system, which comes standard; it was formerly part of a $2,600 option package. The Limited goes up by just $995 when specced with the new 2.3-liter EcoBoost, which raises the power over the 2.0-liter EcoBoost it replaces to 270 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, but doesn't incur any fuel economy penalty. All-wheel drive tacks on another $2,000, safety features like active park assist and lane departure warning come as part of $3,000 Equipment Group A, and you'll still have another three pages of options to get through. On the other hand, if you just want to get your family bundle into an Explorer without spending a bundle, the base model doesn't offer any packages and only has one option over $200. Let the research begin.
NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall
Wed, 05 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.
