Ford Ecoline: the register's spelling for the American Econoline/E-Series full-size van range, V8 engines from 4.6 to 5.4 litres, kerb weights up to 3.4 tonnes
This page gathers the Ford vans listed in the register under the spelling Ecoline, which their model names E 250, E 350 and E-150 identify as versions of the American Econoline range, also known as the E-Series, which Ford has built as a full-size van since 1961. Alongside the closed panel van, the range also includes the cutaway chassis for bodies such as motorhomes and minibuses.

The register lists here 7 versions with six- and eight-cylinder petrol engines of 4,601 to 5,408 cc, kerb weights from 2,301 to 3,400 kg, gross weights from 2,812 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,960 to 2,300 mm.
In North America the range forms the basis for tradesman and delivery vehicles, minibuses, ambulances and motorhomes, competing directly with the Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana and the Dodge Ram Van; the bare cutaway chassis underpins numerous special bodies, from furniture vans to small motorhomes. The large displacement of the petrol engines reflects the North American preference for strong, simple drivetrains in this vehicle segment.
When buying used, check the frame and sills for rust, the ignition and cooling system on the V8 petrol engines, and on cutaway versions the condition of the body and its mounting to the chassis; parts run through the North American Ford network and, given how common this vehicle is, are also readily available second-hand.
