They fixed it all right. That engine doesn't seem to be

available

anymore. They list a 6.2L V8 flex-fuel gasser and a 6.7L V8

diesel.



There are a lot of new RV's on a Ford chassis with the Triton

V-10 engine. I believe all the 2013

Georgetown by Forest River, for example, come with the V-10

engine. Here's an example:

Maybe the Forest River RV is a 2013, but is the chassis a 2013?



Call them and ask.



Moot point, fool, looks like Ford still offers it:

2013 is also the last year of the Ford E-series vans. Going into

retirement. I always had a itch for a E-250 or E-350 but could

never come up with a good enough reason to get one. It dates back to

1961 when it was introduced as a compact van based on the Ford Falcon

chassis.



Yep!!! Friend had one, all fun and games until he ran into the back of a

milk truck! I'd love to find the pickup version, like this!!!!

Never liked the looks of those things. Seemed too front heavy...like they would tip over on it's nose if you braked too heavily.
I liked the old panel trucks from the 40's & 50's that these new Econoline vans displaced.
