Well bought 96 E350 today.

It came from Church they told me it illegal to have 4 seats bench on back of van because their Insurance force them threw away those bench seat.

Van suppose to hold 15 passenger but miss 1 bench seat. Where can we find those bench seat? Now it hold 11 passengers.

It have cruise control do I should get to dealer to check if it under recall? I do see tiny brake fluid around white tank.

For mpg what good speed for this van? it have 351W 75,000 miles and rear axle is 3.54 nonposi

With the extra seat you will need a commercial drivers license.

I may be wrong, but I would think it would depend on the state where you live. As far as finding a seat, have you checked the salvage yards?

got bench seat for $32 it good shape.

I check Michigan Law

I don't need chauffeur license if I carry 16 or over I need chauffeur license.

But I am think get chauffeur license in future for safety.

Question what good mpg for this van? I try 55 it better but 65-70 look horrible.
