    2012 Ford E350 2wd van a good base?

    The combo switch is a POS, but cheap and easy to replace. That should cover the stuck highbeams. There are several vendors who make twin I-Beam lift kits, so there's options there. Properly lifted, with good shocks and tight joints, and you've get a pretty good driving experience. I'd be more...

    Any way to turn off RSC and traction conrol?

    I know this is an old thread, but I just picked up a nice 2009 E350, and the TPMS sensors just wouldn't "reset". And, the RSC was (IMHO) way too sensitive. I've been driving 1-ton vans on windy roads for 30 years, but this thing would apply the brakes, kill the throttle, and just basically be a...

    Barn doors or sliding door on Van. Pro/Cons

    Do the sliders on recent Fords still lock in the open position? We used to drive around in my old '77 GMC van delivering papers with the slider open. It was nice to be able to slam on the brakes and not have the slider slam closed.
