I'm excited to say that I am going to be the owner of a 2004 ford e350 6.0 diesel one week from today. The van was a former shuttle vehicle used in Northern BC in a heli skiing operation. It was converted to 4wd by a local mechanic. At this point I'm not sure how it was done but it has been in commercial use for over 4 years. My thinking is that a company dependent on a vehicle to shuttle rich clients around has to be somewhat reliable. 147k km on the engine and from the records, looks to be well maintained.
6 inch lift with 37 inch tall BFG all terrains. Roof rack and ladder. I think the EGR valve has been taken card of.
The plan for VANsanity is to convert it into a minimalist camping/mountain bike rig. We have a 2011 ram sport as well so I'm hoping that VANsanity will be able to offer something that the ram can't.
The wife is totally on board with the van except the lift kit and tires. She says that she wants a 10 inch lift with at least 37's. I love my wife!
Here is a picture the current owner sent me. I should be getting more when I pick it up this coming Friday. It's a 1300km drive home so I'll try and snap some on the drive back.
