I use to get rid of vans at about 100k miles. My 98 ford e350 I had I let go at 110,000 and it ran like it had those kinda miles on it. A little rough in the cold mornings. Drove kinda loose. Was happy to see it go, however it had no leaks nor used any oil and still looked good.
Today on my 06 I have 135k miles. E350. It starts, runs and drives just as well as my 2010, again no leaks, uses no oil, tight feel at the wheel. And my 07 F150 has 106k miles and it too starts, runs and drives much like it did the day I bought it new.
Car makers, or at least the US brands have really caught up and are now building our vans to last.... To bad the standard van as we know it is slated to be retired.
I have no plans to replace my pick up anytime soon. It has mostly highway miles.
I was considering replacing the 06 E350, but I'm starting to wonder. Is 200k the new 100k?
Keep in mind I run slide ins.
