Ford's E-Series full-size van models, otherwise referred to with the name Econoline, can be equipped in a wide range of configurations for both cargo and passenger duty for 2008. Passenger versions come in two primary models-the standard-duty E-150, and the Super Duty E-350, which offers increased towing and hauling ability. The E-150 comes in a single length, while the E-350 comes in standard and extended versions. The extended version is about 20 inches longer.
A 225-horsepower, 4.6L V8 is standard on the E-150, but all Super Duty E-350s come with a standard 255-horsepower, 5.4L V8. The 5.4L is optional on the E-150; exclusive to the E-350 is the optional 6.0L Power Stroke turbo-diesel, which is best for towing and makes 235 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque. Also standard on the E-350 is AdvanceTrac with roll stability control, an electronic stability aid aimed at preventing the loss of control that could lead to a rollover. Four-wheel anti-lock brakes are standard on all passenger-duty Econolines.
XL models come with air conditioning, a basic AM/FM radio, tilt steering, and a seating arrangement with front bucket seats and two three-passenger bench seats in back. XLTs step up to a six-speaker CD sound system, dual captain's chairs in front, power windows, mirrors, and locks, plus cruise control. The E-350 extended models have several additional seating configurations that can accommodate up to 15 people.
The E-150 can tow up to 7,500 pounds and the E-350 can tow up to 10,000 pounds, when equipped with the optional Trailer Tow package. Notable options include a reverse-sensing system and auxiliary rear air conditioning.
