Used 2001 Ford E-Series Van Used HD Automatic Diesel XLT Extended Passenger Van 7.3 OHV POWERSTROKE Turbo Diesel 444ciL

Seller Description

Hello and thanks for viewing our 2001 Ford E-350 HD XLT 15 Passenger Van. This is a one owner that we purchased from a local municipality where it was extremely well taken care of. Extremely Rare! It’s very rare I come across these diesel passenger vans anymore. Every Blue Moon I come across a Diesel 15 passenger, This is the FIRST and ONLY Diesel 15 passenger XLT ive ever had the pleasure to be able to pass on. Usually they are only XLs with no power options at all. This truck is in such great shape because This municipality kept this and all other vehicles on a preventative maintenance regimen. Fluids were checked on a regular basis and always changed on time.

Allscheduled services were also preformed when required. This trucks condition is a testament to the way it was treated. It was not beat on and runs and drives amazing. Very simply put this thing Looks and Runs GREAT!!! You will not find another truck like this anywhere!!! They just do not exist anymore. There may be others out there but they either have a ton of miles or are complete rust buckets! That is not the case with this beauty. Look at the pictures of the undercarriage. This thing is Rock solid. No Cheap canned undercoating or black spraypaint here! There is nothing to hide . I couldnt find anything more then some light surface rust on areas like the frame rails and driveshaft / rotors. No crust found at all after a pretty thorough inspection. 100% Stock or OEM parts, Truly amazing vehicle that can be put right to use and will last just as long cas a brand new truck or longer for a fraction of the cost. Yes I said it correctly and many people educated on this vehicles drivetrain will agree, (This van has the potential to outlast a brand new van)! This Econoline has all the perfect options for a Quigley type 4x4 Expedition vehicle. Although because they have been retired by Ford, Quigley no longer outfits Econolines. Do not fret , there are plenty of shops out there that have taken up the demand. Here’s what makes it great. It’s the model with the 7.3 Diesel Engine, HD Transmission, HD suspension ,Hitch, Cold A/C, Newer Tires! And most importantly it was kept In very good condition. I travel the country looking for older diesel trucks and vans, I almost want to keep this one! Again, anything powered by the 7.3 are almost all gone or have a million miles or tons of rust! Not the case with this vehicle , 100% Ready to Go!!! You cannot find a better original owner then a state or municipality, they have to follow maintenance schedules and have an unlimited checkbook when it comes to servicing their vehicles. Any issues are always taken care of and not left to linger and cause more damage. They are never run low on fuel or fluids and almost always have a full tank. Again Most Importantly The undercarriage is in great condition as well, what you see is what you get. Let me thoroughly describe the van as best as I can and I will go over every area it's new owner would want to know about.It is equipped with the Legendary International 7.3 POWERSTROKE OHV Diesel engine. IMO The best engine ever made in any passenger vehicle ever. They have been documented to go over 1 million miles helping it secure the moniker "The Million Mile Motor". You don't have to take my word for it , if your not already familiar with the 7.3 , ask your favorite mechanic or do a quick google inquiry. These engines simply go forever and are super low maintenance so finding one with decent miles or finding one in a vehicle that is not a complete rust bucket is getting almost impossible. If you do see one, Try getting the owner to part with it , impossible! . #1 Engine : The engine fires right up with a quick turn of the key and has no trouble starting even in cold temperatures. It runs smooth and sound and doesn't make any odd noises or blow any white smoke out of the exhaust. No blow by. There are no leaks of any kind and the temperature and oil pressure stay normal even after running for hours. Engine oil is fresh and clean and at factory recommended level. Antifreeze seems fine and at a good level with no evidence of any debris or clumps in the coolant. #2 Transmission: The transmission shifts super smooth through all of its gears. There is no banging or thumping into gears. The van does not "bang" when selecting gears and going from park to drive or drive to reverse ETC. Transmission fluid is clean and clear , at a normal level and doesn't have any "burning" smell to it. #3 suspension : The suspension on the van sits high and strong and does not feel worn out. It handles well on unpaved roads and suspension appears to be operating normally and in good order. #4 Brakes : The brakes operate 100% as they should. The brake pedal does not sink low and has a nice grab. The truck doesn't shake or pull when using the brakes at any speed. Brakes are not brand new , but definitely operate fine and do not need to be changed at this point. #5 Tires : The tires on the van will pass an inspection and appear to be newer (all 4) . #6 A Exterior cosmetic condition : The cosmetic condition of this truck and the Diesel engine is what makes it stand out from the rest of the good running vans and trucks listed on eBay. The van is 98% rust free. Floor panels ,rockers tand rocker supports are rock solid. The paint shines bright and it does not have any dull spots or peeling clear coat. There is no major damage. Very importantis the fact that this truck was never used to plow snow, or spread salt. There is just some light oxidation on the driveshafts and exhaust. Same kind of surface oxidation you would see on any new vehicle. Most used ESeries vans have rust issues with rocker panels/ supports , the doglegs and door bottoms. That is not the case with this baby. . The undercarriage is in great condition. Again,What you see is exactly what you get and we felt it was important to show the great condition of this van and there was no need to "cover" anything up. #6 B : interior cosmetics: The interior of this rig is in super great condition for this year and mileage. There were no rips or tears in the seats or headliner and the and all interior options work 100% as they should. Heat blows hot and the air blows cold. Defrost and radio operate fine. All gauges work including fuel. There is no cracked or chipped glass. There are no cracks or big scratches in the dash and due to municipality rules, there was no smoking or pets/ kids allowed in this unit so it is odor and stain free. I can honestly say I have described this truck to the BEST of my ability and I stake my 10 years of solid feedback on all my descriptions. That being said , we do still recommend that potential buyers inspect the vehicle BEFORE buying. The van is available to be seen seven days a week upon appointment. If you are out of state , we will go out of our way to send you extra pictures and even videos of the van starting/ running and driving upon request. There are also 3rd party inspection companies in the area that will inspect the vehicle for you and give you a full unbiased report card at your expense, I am just letting you know these types of services are available .Even though this is one of the cleanest and nicest units I've had in awhile, it is still 24 years old and does have some amount of use and wear and because of age no warranties are available, don't expect a brand new truck and we won't have any problems.These township vehicles get extremely well taken care of since day 1. The Truck has never been in any major damage and has a clean title.I said it before and I'll say it again, this truck is absolutely amazing and it's next owner will definitely not be disappointed. If you really like this unit I suggest buying it now. These trucks when they are this clean never make it more then a day or two before being sold, BUT this one right here is special!! The 15 passenger vans are Extremely RARE with the 7.3 and they get gobbled up QUICK!!! Whenever i'm lucky enough to get my hands on a low mileage 7.3 van , i want to keep it and that's true with this one more then ever. I already have a nice 7.3 powered Excursion and a Cummins Power ram and a Chevy Diesel van lol! We can't become a collector when I do this for a living so i'm going to let someone else enjoy this baby! . If your going to buy it now , please have the funds already available. I have been buying and selling for over 10 years on eBay and have been able to maintain nearly 100% feedback the whole time. I do my best to honestly describe each vehicle. Over the years I have found that a few simple guidelines and suggestions can save my self from wasting time with fake buyers who bid for entertainment purposes only. Again if u buy the truck online , it severs the connections i have with the other people also interested, also it makes me have to hold it for 3 whole days. PLEASE DO NOT HIT THE BUY BUTTON UNLESS YOU INTEND TO PAY FOR THE TRUCK AND TAKE POSSESSION OF IT! Also please after bidding or submitting a bid/offer , message me to let me know your plans. The truck is available for buyer pick up or I can meet with a shipper/transporter 7 days a week upon appointment. My descriptions are honest but just like anything that anyone describes its still my opinion. I have 17 years experience in the auto industry and i specialize in diesel trucks and grew up in N.J. so I know where to look for the rust these fords typically have and this one is a exception to the norm. All the vehicles I list are usually older and the factory warranty has long expired. Because of this, these units are sold100% AS-IS. I do not have any policies that are different from any other legitimate auction site. Again if you buy it now , please be prepared to leave the deposit and follow thru with the deal. No low balling please do a little research and a one owner clean E series Diesel in this shape especially extended with a 7.3 is worth this kind of money. If you can even find another one. It’s a life long investment. Plus this one has only 100k Miles!!!!! There is no such thing as buying and then coming to "look" at it. If you want to look please do that before purchasing. Again I will go out of my way to meet for an appointment or send pictures and videos. I can also assist with shipping worldwide if needed. I am a very easy guy to work with this is how I feed my family so I take the process and my feedback very seriously. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call me at[hidden information]. The last truck I had similar to this didn't last 24 hours on eBay and was no where near as nice, so don't sleep on this one. It is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the listing early at any time. Again Please Don't "buy it now" or make an offer unless your ready to pay for it and discuss how your going to come get it. ( Yes i had to say it again because people still do it after saying it twice), I can help ship or get you picked up from one of the many major airports in the area. Thank you.
