2012 e-series trailer weight cap 10000 pounds (with proper hitch) ford 2012 towing guide,.. as i read further the 15 passenger wagon e350 sd is 6300 (loaded) 10000 would be just driver no cargo,.. total combined weight rating 13000
In looking at the pics closer I see some spots that may have a little rust. Some door hinge area look like its showing through the paint or in the creases. See a few other suspect spots in door jambs and whatnot. I am guessing it is probably early on rust and could be stopped pretty easy?
Probably buying it within a hr or two...have 7 days and 400 miles to return it if I have issues.
Ill have the van in 6-12 days! There 7 day 400 miles is no questions asked so if I see something I dont like I can get my $ back but im sure it will be fine.
Anyone reading this know if the factory aluminum rims weigh less, more, or the same as the steel wheel with the wheel cover?
I just got it Monday night...they had to get a 3rd party transport and that took some time but I knew that going into it. With Carvana I could have picked it up for free in one of there vending machines but closest one is 3hrs away in Houston and I didn't have time. They also would bring it as close to me that would have been about 2hrs for free (in there network zone) but again no time for that at that point. So We opted to pay 399 for them to deliver to my office so they had to post the transport job and wait for someone to pick it up.
Just took it on a 200 mile round trip to deliver some snack trays to a casino and it drove great! Sooo much better than the 98 with 250k that I have...that leaks...and smells the part. We got it when we bought this gift basket company. The inside is super clean...no new car small but smells clean...not carpet cleaner smell...just the nice fresh clean smell. No rust that I can see now in person but I didn't get a chance to look it over close its been raining. The spots I thought was rust in the pics was dirt lol! The delivery company (3rd party) messed up the antenna tho...bent that part of the fender a little. I sent pics to Carvana and will see how they handle it. They also put 2 scratches on it...sent them pics as well. I'd love to know what they used it for...I can tell it seems the seats were out a lot becasue the floor brackets have some wear and a few outer plastic parts on the side double door area. That and the seats seem brand new. It even had the window sticker in the glov box...was 38k and some change new.
I took it to my ford dealer....I am going to get a Ford ESP warranty for 100k miles like I have on my f150. They just needed to do the ESP check first which is fine becasue I want it to be looked over hard while im in my 7 day 400 mile period. I am sure ill have more questions...things to look out for...things I should do now to prevent something down the line that are well known.
Good gravy that's a GREAT E350----congrats on snagging it!
Yea I am pretty pumped about it. I had been looking around and saw a lot of them that were fleet vans with 50-60k on them and a year or two old. I figured they were probably road hard and put up wet but would suit my needs. When I saw this one tho I knew I had to have it. Was a cpl grand more than I was looking to spend but I felt it was worth it.
I love this version of the E350s...cant stand the look of the new transits really. That front chrome grill is bold and in your face with the nice boxy shape. I really needed the seats to come out easy too. I have a online Louisiana gift basket company (Cajun Treats) so I load the van up with a bunch of baskets packed in boxes to ship and picking up stock. When I don't need all the room I will have the 2 rows in so I can haul some friends and family. On the occasions I need to haul a bunch I can put all the seats in and roll.
Cpl more pics. The engin bay is immaculate lol. And one of the spots I thought might be rust looking at the pics online.
