Hi there and thanks for your interest in my conversion van. My name is Rich and I am selling my 1997 Ford E-350 Conversion Van. Let me start by sharing my past history on E-Bay, I have sold probably 7-8 vehicles on Ebay in the past 6-7 years. I have had great success doing so because I have always been up-front and honest about the cars I have sold. Please read the reviews I have gotten on any one of these sales. They are all perfect responses and 2-3 of them have come from out of state buyers that have flown in to Chicago and drove home.One from Oklahoma and one from Texas.
Now about the Van, it is a 1997 Ford E-350 Conversion Van. The Van has 148,612 miles on it and is in excellent condition.The van has the following equipment-- power steering,power brakes,windows,door locks and seats.It is a cloth interior,tilt steering wheel, cruise control,front and rear heating and air conditioning.The van also has a center console and behind that console is a flat screen t.v with a dvd player ( great for kids ) .The van has a tan cloth interior with 2 captains chairs in front and 2 behind.There is no third bench behind the center captains chairs so there is seating for 4. I bought the van that way and found that using the back space was more important to haul hockey equipment and band equipment as I did so often.If you have a desire for a bench seat in back one can be puchased for a reasonable amount and of course bolted down and good to go!
The van runs perfect and I cannot think of anything that does not work properly even all of the gauges work.The body is very nice with very minimal rust over the back wheel wells.You can not even see the rust in the pics as it is very little.There is not one dent or ding on the body to speak of. The tires still have plenty of thread and the van runs excellent! The van also has a very expensive alarm system and remote start which works perfectly..The interior is very clean both carpeting and seats. I took as many pictures as I thought neccesary.
Please if you are interested in this van there will be "no reserve" so the highest bidder will win the auction.I ask that you are 100 percent sure that you want and will buy this van should you win! It will not be fair to you,me or the rest of the interested parties that bid. If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me and I will be glad to answer any questions as honestly as I can. Again my name is Rich and I live in Park Ridge Illinois which is right outside of Chicago and 5 minutes from Ohare airport.Good luck and bid with confidence. Thank You Rich

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Find out if the Ford Fiesta ST can match Europe's latest hot hatches
Tue, 11 Feb 2014The V8 grunt of the Mustang has defined Ford performance cars in the US for the last 50 years, but in Europe, the Blue Oval has nearly as a long history of building some of the best hot hatches on the market with the Fiesta, Escort and later the Focus. The latest Fiesta ST has just hit the roads on both sides of the pond and has been enthusiastically received thanks to its combination of a peppy, turbocharged engine and hatchback utility.
However, Europe is getting a bumper crop of hot hatches at the moment, including the forthcoming, third-generation Mini Cooper S. Should Ford have waited to launch the ST until it knew how the competition performed? That's the answer that Xcar is after in its latest video, and it took the Fiesta to the track and some very misty, Welsh roads to find out. Scroll down to find out whether the ST stacks up.
