What is the gas mileage on an ford E 350 van?

The gas mileage of a Ford E-350 van varies significantly depending on several factors:

* Engine: The E-350 is offered with a range of engines, from V6 to V8 gasoline engines and diesel options. Larger engines and those without fuel-saving technologies will get significantly worse gas mileage.

* Transmission: Automatic transmissions generally have slightly lower fuel economy than manuals (though manuals are rare in this class of vehicle).

* Payload and Towing: Carrying a heavy load or towing a trailer will dramatically reduce fuel economy.

* Driving style: Aggressive driving habits will lower MPG.

* Vehicle condition: Proper maintenance is crucial for optimal fuel efficiency.

* Year of manufacture: Newer models often incorporate technology improvements that enhance fuel economy.

Therefore, there's no single answer. You'll find a wide range of EPA estimates depending on the specific configuration. Expect generally low MPG figures, in the range of 10-18 MPG for gasoline engines and potentially slightly better for diesel options, but always significantly below the fuel economy of smaller vehicles. To find the exact MPG for a specific year and configuration, you should consult the EPA's FuelEconomy.gov website or the owner's manual for that particular vehicle.
