Overview & Reviews
Ford's Econoline (E-Series) van gets few changes for 2004. A Chateau model is added to the lineup, whereas it was previously only an option package. Aluminum 16-inch wheels are available on all Econolines; in fact, even the standard-issue steel wheels are 16s this year. The 4.2-liter V6 has been dropped on E-150 models, while E-350 models now offer Ford's excellent new 6.0-liter turbodiesel V8 in place of the 7.3-liter diesel. Several features from last year's Econoline have been deleted -- among these, underseat storage, the passenger-side vanity mirror, seat-mounted grab handles and overhead lighting in the second row.
- Massive people-hauling and cargo-toting ability, powerful engines, wide range of configurations, comfortable seats.
- Trucklike fuel economy, unwieldy size, limited second-row legroom, lots of wind noise.

2004 E-350 has been built F-Tuf - 2004 Ford Econoline Wagon
By russ evans - October 15 - 2:33 amThe 04 E-350 is the perfect family lodge-on-rubber. For long trips, it is spacious and RVish. Plenty of power, great driver visibility, decent interstate mpg (18) and stout as a...well a Ford truck! No pot hole can hurt it, and its only refinement could be softer seats. Godspeed to the Ford Motor Co. for sticking with (forever, it seems) such a timeless, supertuff and trustworthy giant. I love my friendly Ford.

We love it! - 2004 Ford Econoline Wagon
By Heyteach - January 27 - 10:00 amThe E150 Chateau is wonderful for someone who is diabled. It can carry two scooters or two wheelchairs (electric), and still have room for passengers. It also has plenty of room for shopping even with the electric scooters, wheelchairs and passengers. It will come in handy when we are able to travel to visit releatives as we can take all we require with us.

Surprisingly fun car to own! - 2004 Ford Econoline Wagon
By ActiveFamily - January 13 - 1:40 pmThe Ford E-350 is big but surprisingly easy and fun to drive! Our kids love being able to take all of their friends in our car. Its comfortable and is great value compared with a minivan. The ride is very smooth. Gas mileage is better than we expected, and you can go forever on a tank. Seats are easy to remove, so you can load it up to haul stuff. We cant wait to take it on a long family driving trip. Id definitely buy another one.

Most Bang for Bucks - 2004 Ford Econoline Wagon
By VanMan - March 19 - 4:36 amEasy to work on. Ultra-Safe. Room for anything, Takes no more parking space than most cars. Gas mileage better than most cramped mini-suvs. Cheaper than most minivans, the only way to ride on long hauls, and finally, made in America.
