Just found this in my local CL

No price listed, but a unique van anyway. Might be worth looking in to.
This is just outside of Knoxville, Tn.

Re: Just found this in my local CL

Nice circular logic on the price. Would be a cool van, though, if it could accommodate a Banks Sidewinder (actually pretty cool the way it is).

Sorry, I did not read the ad completely before I posted. I should've. This guy doesn't really want to sell a van.

So if you don't have the vehicle he's looking for, you are supposed to go out and buy that vehicle, so you can trade it for the van he has?

Does this qualify as a passive-aggressive craigslist ad?

It's too bad. That thing would get Sprinter type mileage.

Re: Just found this in my local CL

My F250 is worth way more than that van, hell any Superduty with half an axle in the junkyard is probably worth more.

Besides, Kim won't let me trade it for anther van... trust me, I've asked!

Re: Just found this in my local CL

Pardon my ignorance... My Sprinter SMB gets 19mpg. My 2000 Ford Diesel SMB got 14mpg. Why would this Ford get better mileage? Different engine that was more efficient than more recent ones?
