Wow, just saw this looking around my area for cheap G's. Looks pretty good for 390k!! Hard to believe it's still road worthy.

Can't believe the seats are in such good shape.

I know, It has obviously been garaged and had mostly highway miles. Most of the cars I have seen with 300k+ miles have really bad paint and seats. If you think about it he has spent more money on gas than the original sticker price. Honestly I doubt he will ever sell it with that many miles. The only type of buyer he would get for it would be someone wanting a project car that was going to replace everything.

That's crazy mileage (at 21 mpg, ouch) and really unbelievable with the interior condition. Neat to see such a well kept and high mileage example.

Winters in Springfield must not be as bad as the one I experienced working there 2014-2015. Seemed like every week was an ice or snow hazard adventure.

Yeah, we don't get a lot of snow but get some pretty bad ice storms. The last record breaker was in 2007 where most of Springfield was out for over a week. I had to run business and home out of a E150 cargo van with generators, deep cycles and huge inverters. Thank God for city gas!

This explains the user name, haha.

My van is my mobile power house. I can little put people back on the grid with the inverters in the back. Have it for rainy and snowy days as a side business.

Haha, that was a good one. I wish I still had that van but I sold it a couple years after that major ice storm. It was the BIG club wagon with the good old Ford 302ci 5.0l, 3G 130 amp alternator, and a 35 gallon tank. I picked it up for $350 and only had to replace the cast exhaust manifolds and battery Was a great utility / toy hauler / work vehicle. I saw one like mine a couple yeas back that this old guy built with a truck 4wd setup and 3-4 inch lift. Made me start thinking about getting another one haha

I'm seeing more van builds than sports cars now a days.
