1989 Ford Econoline ltd review from North America
"A real SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Most of this cars problems can be traced back to the prior owner.
The vacum lines had to be re-routed most of them had been caped, cut, or were missing hence causing crappy performance.
The other problem was the ignition switch once replaced all good.
General comments?
This car is king of the highway its 351 shows who's boss. Its eaten its share of 70k euro sports cars not bad for its 750 dollar cost. The comfort is unbeatable huge split bench plus plenty of people and cargo space. Gas mileage is also great when the size is taken into account. The handleing is also good for its size.
