1998 Ford Club Wagon HD Chateau Diesel
Vehicle
1998 Ford E-350 2 Dr Chateau Club Wagon
Review
I ordered this vehicle with all the bells and whistles. The 7.3L Powerstroke diesel is everything I expected. Fuel mileage ranges from 15.5 mpg in the dead of the winter to 18.5 - 20.0 mpg in the summer months. The engine supplies plenty of power and the transmission performs flawlessly. It handles well and has a good ride despite the 1 ton rating. Maintenance cost is typical and I encountered nothing unusual in repairs. This van weighs in around 7950#, so it is no lightweight. In fact, since everything is heavy duty, it tends to go further before replacement is needed.
Favorite Features
Plenty of interior room, lots of glass to see out. Seating is rather comfortable. Ample storage room behind rear seat.
Suggested Improvements
Better engine noise isolation.

Review
Has been an outstanding vehicle. It is dependable, gets incredible gas mileage for a one ton chassis, and is fairly comfortable. Not real sporty but who cares?
Favorite Features
Room to spare

Smoother ride at highway speeds.

Big Van for Big Plans
Vehicle
1998 Ford E-350 2 Dr Chateau Club Wagon
Review
I traded in a '98 E150 with the 4.6L V8 engine that had 143,000 miles on a '98 E350 Chateau with a V10 and 53,000 miles. The 350 drives better and the interior is nicer. The V10 has great torque and is quieter thant the V8. Gas milage ranges from 11 City to 16 Highway. This van is set up for towing not good gas milage. We will have to see how the V10 holds up.
Favorite Features
Drivers seat and Captains chairs are very comfortable. AC is very good. Ride is firm but quiet. This van will tow anything.
Suggested Improvements
I wish there were an "economy" switch that would improve the gas milage. The cupholders could be better.
