After owning 5 Dodge vans over the past 20 years, I've made the switch to Ford. It's a '93 E150 with a 351 and only 114,000 miles. The A/C has been converted to R134a and works but is not great. I'll be buying a cargo trailer to build into my living quarters, so this van will stay mostly as it is. It has about 75lbs. of obsolete electronics in it like a CD changer,VCR and TV that will be removed.

I paid $1800 for it. It needs tires,a tuneup and a few other things but is in pretty good shape for a '93.
Yes, all that electronic gear is pretty heavy...and would be power draining, so it will go. Might even find a market for it on eBay,LOL.

Time will tell if it's a good choice over paying $1000's more for a newer van. I do most of the mechanic work on my vehicles so I'll save there but I do have an emergency repair fund set aside for major stuff that I wouldn't be able to do.
