1996 Ford Econoline review from Netherlands
"It's Great!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the radiator in 2004, which is normal after 100.000 miles. Replaced the multi-belt along with the idler and tensioner, which is also normal. That's it, folks!
General comments?
This is without a doubt the best car I have ever owned. Its roomy, it handles good and has enough power to be quicker than many other "normal" cars. I even made a homepage dedicated to my Van at www.countrydancenews.nl/usa_van.htm
Feel free to take a look, lot of pictures!
