This van is awesome. I fell in love with it two years ago because it has so much character and I wanted to take it across the country. However, it's not good on gas and I was never able to afford the trip. I have used the van a few times for shorter trips and tailgaiting, and it is a crowd-pleaser and attention grabber to say the least.
The van starts right up and I have never had a problem where it didn't.
It idles high, and it coasts at 30mph without even touching the gas pedal. I'm not sure if this is bad for the van or not, but it doesn't seem to affect anything in the engine at all. It doesn't overheat, even in traffic on a hot summer day.
It most likely needs new tires. They aren't the best in wet conditions and the momentum of the van doesn't help the situation either. I got used to it and I don't even notice it anymore, but I would definitely recommend new tires.
All of the interior motors work, including the front two power windows and the motor that turns the couch into a bed. The other windows slide open only on the bottom.
The AC has not worked since I've owned the van. I never looked into it so it might just need to be charged.
The interior is in beautiful condition, give or take some normal wear for a 21 year old van. But the original owner never took the plastic protector off the back carpet and neither did I, so it's in great condition.
There are two gas tanks, but there is a leak in the top of the back tank. I just dealt with it by only filling the back tank up half-way and I never had a problem.
***Currently, there is a problem with the brakes. I had them done completely for $1000 two years ago, but a day ago they started acting up. I'm pretty sure it just needs brake fluid, but I will absolutely figure out for sure before I sell the van to anyone. I just don't want to put anymore money into the van unless I am sure I am selling it.***
The van has passed emissions for me whenever needed without any problems.
This van is a ton of fun to drive, sit in, and look at. I'm sad to see it go but I know it's for the best.
Come check it out!
Notable features: overhead lights above every seat, runner lights on back wall and on steps, a small tv with a VCR (the tv turns on but the VCR ate my tape), small cooler built into floor, two super-comfy velvety-fabric bucket seats, a couch that converts into a bed with a motorized button, duel-purpose shades on all large windows (one that is opaque and allows light through, and one that is a solid privacy shade), police radar-detector (I'm not even sure if it's legal, it just came with the van when I bought it), generous trunk space with a hanger holder, complimentary cigarette-lighter vacuum

Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.
2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.
