The Ford E-250 is a desirable platform for vehicle travel, with recent examples including this 2013 pop-top adventure van, a 2006 expedition build, and a 1996 Falcon Class B camper. Today’s 2008 build has covered just 74,750 miles and benefits from a Quigley 4×4 conversion, high-top roof, and premium modifications, and is priced at just $36,500. That’s good value considering the seller has “receipts for over $80,000.” The E-250 is a popular choice for overlanding thanks to its long-lived motors and drivetrains, generous payload (up to 3,624 pounds) and towing capacity (6,500 pounds), modest external footprint versus interior space, comfortable driving experience, and access to readily available 4WD conversions. In addition, these vans enjoy excellent aftermarket support and can be uprated with specialist parts and accessories to optimize this platform for backcountry trails. If you’d like a better idea of how the E-250 4WD can be outfitted for exploration, then check out the builds from Timberline Vans and Colorado Camper Van. Still not convinced? Then I highly recommend reading Driving Line’s excellent overview of Why the Ford E-Series Van is the ultimate overlanding build platform.
From the Seller:
“Offering up my Quigley Ford van for sale. Fly in and drive it home. It had a pretty simple life, never going that far off the beaten path. It towed campers, laughed at the snow, and served as a camper itself. It was originally a handicap-accessible van, and all of the hardware has since been removed. Truly one of the nicest 4×4 vans I’ve ever seen, it’s well maintained and shows it.”
