2006 E350 What price?

I know I can do my own research but I was wondering what folks around here thought I should list my van for?

All of the engine stuff has been done by Ujoint.

Dual Ujoint Tanks
On board air
Rear ARB Air Locker
Rear Air Bags
bilsteins all around w/ Ujoint lift and axle kit
warn 15k winch
Bumpers and Aluminess Custom Box to fit next to 37" spare
Rigid Lights
Yukon hubs and axles
rack awning
MLACR with 2 blue tops
4000w inverter & other doo dads

Inside is just 2 bench seats that fold into a bed along with cabinets. Nothing special there.

Mileage just hit 50k.

I might or might not sell it. Trying to decide if we are going to buy a RV since we are now expecting child number 3.

Re: 2006 E350 What price?

Are your concerns sleeping space, amenities (potty, shower, sink,...), or something else?

FWIW, I'd hold onto what you have, add a few windows and maybe consider a pop-top or camp trailer, depending on the reasons you're considering selling.

Great looking Van. May I ask what type of wheels you have on the Van?

Re: 2006 E350 What price?

To be honest it comes down to my wife, and sleeping / seating space.

We have 3 car seats and often times need a 4th or 5th due to our kids friends that tag along. That means sleeping space is very limited. I have not totally decided, I might just get a little travel trailer for family trips but thought I would see what people thought here, not about the options but the value.

Wheels are XD Addicts with 37" Toyo MTs.

Sweet van, I say keep it but I totally get where you're coming from. If momma ain't happy.... I have four kids with oldest being twins at 8 and I think you could make it work with either a travel trailer or pop top. But again, you don't have to live with me...

Re: 2006 E350 What price?

UJoint listed an 06 Chateau with a 6.0 with their 8" kit and 37's for $33k. It wasn't bulletproofed, but it did have some goodies like their front bumper, OBA, double fox shocks, etc. It had way more miles than yours too though (140k).

Your van and the van they listed isn't exactly apples to apples but they are somewhat similar and it at least gives you a ballpark of what a higher mileage, UJoint equipped van is asking.

Re: 2006 E350 What price?

I'm new to the SMB class B family, and every guy I have chatted with since I got my '02 two months ago say with a pathetic grimace... "I wish I had never sold my van..." Ive got 4 monkeys and my wife questioned the purchase but let me anyway I'll sleep in the tent and let them enjoy the van just to keep the peace. Its worth it! BTW, that is a sweet rig![emoji106]

Get an Xventure Trailer with a roof top tent. You can outfit the trailer with water & heater, propane, frig cooler, awning, and battery supply with space to haul lots of extra gear. With the clearance you're not limited like a regular trailer or camper. Plus you can use it as a utility trailer when needed. And outfit the trailer with your vehicle wheels and tires and everything is interchangeable.
