First off... Welcome.
Curious who your diesel mechanic is in San Diego? I found one but he moved.
Regarding your van, here's my thoughts. As I just sold a 1995 SMB with 140K on the clock.
1. Pictures. Just like Craigslist. Everyone wants to see pics, pics, pics
2. Sliding door. Many people wanting to convert their van want the double doors.
3. Year. I think it's mental. Just like buying something for $9.99 vs $10.00. Only a penny difference, but in someone's head it is. Just like your van, people wanting diesels don't think much of vans older than 2000.
4. Offers. Offers are like opinions, everybody has one. But who's actually is worth anything? The person with cash in hand. I listed my van here and craigslist. It actually sold to a local buyer via Craigslist. I had three people in the first 24 hours that said, "they really wanted to buy my van." Of course once they showed up, they proceeded to low ball me. Anyway, I'm digressing...
If you're serious about selling. Post up some pics. Maybe an add on Craigslist.
Me? I'd be interested in your van if it had the double doors, not slider. (too much noise getting in/out of the van while camping). Funny though we're considering an E350 or Excursion...
