I found and bought "the van"

It's a little bigger than what I was looking at... but it was a great deal.


2003 E350 V10!
Lift kit, big wheels/tires
pw/pdl/cruise, single bench seat and the rest of the back is bare cargo.
Bilstein shocks, steering stabilizer, class IV tow receiver & brake controller.
109k miles, bought from the original owner, well maintained.
$5500. Flew down to Southern California and drove it home 400 miles yesterday. 14mpg @ 70mph .




Now to start the buildout!

Carlsbad. The guy said he had 2 other Craigslist flakes in the past few months, he re-listed it and I got him to take down the ad within 24 hours when I showed him my airline ticket down there .
