Glad to hear that. I always had a soft spot in my heart for the Econoline van . Drove many in the '70's...E 100, E 300 van and E 300 (srw) cube van. Favourite van I drove for many a mile was the late '70's E 350 DRW, with an insulated box and reefer unit. It had the 460 V8 (wonderful engine, lots of torque, durable) and an am radio. The radio may sound like a small deal, but it was great. No longer did I have to carry my old Mitsubishi transistor radio in the truck cab. I got the radio from Sears in the '60's.
Nice memories.
x2. I've been driving or riding in them literally my entire adult life. We're on version 3 in my fire department, brand new 2016 E450 based aid vehicles with the Triton V10. 8000 miles in they are working well. They are thirsty on fuel, but much faster and quieter than the 7.3 diesels they replaced.
