Good deal....clean V-10 fixed-roof / Texas / $4350

Or......it's another scam.

Yet, to my intuitive senses, this seems more like a hastily-posted ad from someone who doesn't know that a 15-year-old Sportsmobile is anything special.

Can't tell if it's an EB or an RB from the photos.
This ad is only 2 hours old right now.

2000 Ford E250 Sportsmobile Conversion Van / 1 owner - $4350

V-10 motor
Very good condition

LourPitcher --- you actually got someone on the line?
I just tried calling, and got a recording that the "subscriber hadn't set up voicemail yet."

The 832 area code IS a Texas area code, for what that's worth.

I'm skeptical but for some reason not willing to say 100% it's a scam. If it had 200k on it, it could actually be for sale for that price. I'm not gonna flag it but I am curious what happens with this one.

Seems too good to be true. Too cheap for the rig, and not near enough information. If it were one owner, I'm pretty sure that owner would be well aware it doesn't Blue Book like a regular old Econoline cargo van.

Yes, I got someone on the line...a kind bedridden elderly Houston gentleman who has no vans, vehicles or knowledge of one. And I triple checked the number I dialed to make sure it was the exact same as posted in the Craigslist.

He likely is tired of answering the phone.
