2006 Ford E350 4X4 Van, with a 6.0 liter diesel.  I purchased this van just after it was professionally converted to a 4X4.  It's a coil over conversion, similar to what Salem Kroger used to do. It's got a Dana 60 front end from a 2008 F350.  Procomp suspension with about 6" of lift. 
Since purchase, I've invested over $15K in making the van expedition-ready.  This includes the camper interior, as well as mechanical upgrades, all of which I have receipts for.  

Upgrades completed within the last year and a half:

  • bulletproof EGR cooler and oil cooler
  • 2 new high performance batteries
  • new alternator
  • new FICM, injectors
  • new fuel pump
  • all new steel braided heating and cooling hoses
  • new wiring harness, entire electrical system gone through
  • new turbo inlet pipe and boot
  • new brake pads and vacuum pump
  • viper alarm with kill switch
  • pioneer stereo with speakers
  • roof rack               


  • new insulation at floor and side panels
  • new floor
  • new sportsmobile couch/bed completely re-upholstered
  • new cabinet with aluminum trim
  • insulated window coverings

The interior was built for sleeping comfort and gear storage, I left out the stove and sink to have a more open floorplan and for more room for toys.  I had an outside kitchen set up that worked for my needs, but the stove/sink cabinet area could be easily added.  


*this is the dream van, but I now need a daily driver for work, so I'm going back to a Tacoma with pop up camper on the back.  


*available for local pick up, or could arrange shipping for an additional price.


For those curious about the odometer discrepancy, I had this investigated when I bought the van, and there were no signs of rollback, all of the numbers matched. I bought it from Javier, who builds and sells 4X4 vans, and has established a good reputation. He assured me that nothing was tampered with, and my third party inspector backed him up, and also added that the software to rollback a digital odometer costs thousands of dollars and requires extensive knowledge.

In short, I don't know where the discrepancy comes from, but the majority of the van build only has about 12K miles on it, and I've invested a lot into making the engine bulletproof and problem-free. All the work is recent, well documented, and done at the best diesel performance shop in northern california.

Thanks for looking.

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.

Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines

Sun, 24 Nov 2013

Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
