I am thinking of buying a 00 ford e-250 cargo van w/ a v10. wanted to get some feedback on if it would pull a 26ft
v-nose enclosed trailer with any problems.

Any feedback would be great

bamurf80,

I have 2000 E350 V10... The E250 will pull a lot depending on the configuration.... You really need to start by looking up the Gross vechile weight for your Van and then determine the Gross trailer weight... Once you know the Gross Vechile weight of the go to someplace and have it weight so that you can find its real loaded weight, ie: With Gas and supplies and people. The difference will allow you to determine the usable tong weight...

Oh and if you have a extended cab Van they don't handle as well as the standard length, they are fine just be aware that they are effected by tong weight and cross winds more serverly than standard length vans...

Good Luck,

Hibrass
