2002 Ford Econoline Cargo Review

Summary

What Edmunds.com says

Buying a commercial van for business use is easy. Pick from Dodge, Ford or General Motors. The Ford is now a decade old in terms of design and engineering, but remains competitive to the Dodge (dating to 1971) and Chevy/GMC twins (circa 1996). If Ford can outfit one they way you want, there's no reason to look elsewhere.

Pros

Massive cargo-hauling ability, wide range of configurations.

Cons

Offers very few convenience features, engines can't match GM in terms of power.

What's New for 2002

A tilt steering wheel, full-length vinyl floor covering and a low fuel indicator have been added as standard equipment. If cruise control is ordered, the switches are backlit at night and a cruise-on indicator glows in the gauge cluster.
