I couldn't find much with the search function on this engine so I wanted to ask what the general consensus on them is. I'm looking at an e350 that has 200,000 with the 5.4, square body but it's not really a box truck more like a square van. They're asking 6,000 for it, which seems high to me with it having 200k miles, but a lot of vans around me that aren't high top or anything are going for 4k+ with 200k miles. The guy says he doesn't have any maintenance records for it and that it hasn't had engine work done to it, but he says it runs and sounds perfect. I know these have a spark plug problem so I would probably change them out first thing. He claims people usually run these vans to 400k miles and the 200k isn't really that high. What are your thoughts on it? I know it depends in how it was maintained but do many of these go up to 300k before needing major engine work? Could it need rebuilt at any time? Thanks.
