Used 2005 Ford Econoline Cargo Consumer Reviews
The BEst
One of the best vehicles ever! i put over 50k miles a year, nothing but rliable transportation
E-350SD Cargo Van
I find the Ford E-350SD Cargo Van both practical and effective. While it's used mostly for business, I also use it to transport my dogs. It's stable on the road, even at high speeds, and turns quite easily. Ford really Has a Better Idea.

Great ride! Getting 13.94mpg at 250K+ miles and only after that point did I replace the starter, radio, blower motor (probably because I run it full-blast all the time), and the battery for only the second time since new. It does also need a windshield which I hear don't last long, and there are things that are showing wear. HOWEVER, it has run smooth since day one and the big stuff is durable. The stuff that has been replaced is cheap and EASY to replace which is important because it'll save you labor at the mechanic shop. I'm looking to buy a second one now because I like this one so much. UPDATE: 9.9.21: 278K miles, still runs silky smooth. UPDATE: 3.12.22: 292K miles and climbing, no issues. UPDATE: 9.14.22: 302K miles, driven daily, no issues. UPDATE: 3.18.24: 334K miles, lots of small wear issues came up that were repaired or replaced but the drive train is still solid and original. Runs great.

Excellent while it lasted
I purchased a 2004 E250 Cargo van in 2006 when I began my mobile automotive repair business. It had 29K miles when I bought it. I used it daily and it was very reliable. 3 years of hard driving and it only needed brakes, oil changes, wiper blades and a drive belt. Unfortunately, I was involved in a head on collision and the van was totaled with 60K miles. I walked away from the accident with a broken bone in my foot, and torn ligaments as well, but otherwise intact. They are great vans and I highly recommend them and a bulkhead if you are carrying tools.
Van man
I have 350k miles...and runs like a new vehicle, keep oil changed, keep tires up to right air pressure. Keep radiator flushed every 30kmiles...change Tran fluid every 40k miles, keep breaks good...keep all parts lubed where accessible.....do all this.and you will get 1million miles out of it
