The new Ford Transit full size van is not quite the trailer towing vehicle that the old E350 is but is probably up to what you want and gives a lot better fuel economy. Also, it is a much newer design (over 40 years newer) so it probably drives better and is more comfortable. If you want an E350 you had better move quickly as they are out of production and are already getting scarce. Your best bet would be to find one being retired from a rental fleet that has the V10 in it. You can ask any car dealer to see if any are coming up at auction and get him to buy it for you. I did that back in 2003 and got one with half of the warrentee left for under $19K. Because they are getting scarce when I put it up for sale recently it sold for $7.5k in one day. That makes it the cheapest vehicle I have ever owned. I could count the number of times it was in the shop on one hand, a great vehicle.
