1995 E250 2WD 94k, $11k (Am I missing anything?)



Hey guys, I'm moving in a few months and thought it would be smart to put my van on the market at the start of the camping season instead of the end. (Although I intend to keep using it in the meantime. Summer is coming to Oregon, finally!)

If you guys get a chance, would you mind looking at the page I made for the van and letting me know if there's any information I should I add?

Thanks!

Update: I've been getting lots of bites, but haven't sold the van yet. I've got my heart set on another vehicle, so I'm going to drop it down to $11k, FYI.

Looks like a nice rig. The tires look new - are they, you might want to say this; anything about towing capabilities, or whether you've towed with it? Also, I found the background graphic a bit much - very hard to read the text - may want to make the font bigger.

Good luck and have fun using your SMB while you still have it - I think it will sell fast.

Yeah, new tires. And front and rear hitches mounts, but I've never used them. I'll add that.

And yeah, the background is busy. That's just my personal site so I didn't change the background design for the ad.

Now it's a little hippy-dippy-love nest with the background.

The very end bit reads like you don't really want to sell, like you'd grudgingly take an email from me. I'd leave that part out, even if it's accurate.

How much for the house in the background?

Took about an hour. Not bad for $13!

Looks like it has the opening side door & rear door windows. From what I've read here I don't think those are available any more and don't see them in newer van pictures. May be a positive for someone wanting a camper to have for ventilation. I've opened mine when camped.

I bid $3000, but I guess I got outbid.
