Re: 2010 Sportsmobile E350 EB V10 4x4 $85k

The discontinuation of the E-350 vans is a negative for me looking at the used van market.

Will make them seem and look like old outdated product sooner. Makes their long term parts availability less likely and more expensive. Since the line is discontinued, I won't be able to take advantage of any future assembly improvements to retrofit back to the discontinued product line.

Makes me want to delay any purchases and wait to get more popular replacements offering newer and better technology.

Imagine all the experiences and moments you could've had while you continue to wait for something newer.

Thank you, dyslexia. I read it as 187k. I retract that now... And probably think 80 grand is reasonable.

I think that's the crux - a lot of people don't think the new offerings are better, as far as 4x4 goes.
