    bigfoots were awesome, ive seen quite a few and their owners arent willing to sell them. this was a lets see how they sell thing and the response was crazy. if i found one i would do everything to restore it to original where i could. im converting my 95 eco to a camper, just wish i had the hi top but its all good. this thing in its condition should easily grab 10 to 15 k. this is van life before it became a thing.

    If that's a 5.4 liter engine, it's a Triton V8. A 351 is 5 8 liters and a totally different engine. The 351 was used through '96, and the 5.4 Triton beginning in '97. And the Triton V10 is 6.8 liters and is not the same as a 460, which is a 7.5 liter V8. (My 2002 Ford E350 van has a 6.8 Triton V10 with 244,000 miles.)

      The 5.4 was known for spitting out spark plugs due to the head materials. I ended up with a kit that drills, taps, and inserts Heli coil off ebay, sold the truck but still have the kit if any 5.4 owners out there need one.. Love this truck, first thing I'd do is full spark plug replacement.

    Airstream b190 has way more room. B190 also has a higher roof and bigger toilet area. The toilet in this thing looks unusable. It also looks like it's on a E250 chassis b190 is on E350 chassis. It would have been nice if this guy said what chassis it was mounted on but I take it he don't even know. Still a nice looking Class B
