Really does have just 46,685. Having such low miles on it kinda makes it much newer van than most 1997 vans. It has the nice advantage of not having as many computerized electrical as newer vans to have issues with. For example, the keys are old-school simple $4 keys, vs. the 2004+ transponder keys at $28 + programming. Bought it on eBay from the Medford, OR motorpool asset handler auction department about a year ago when it had 37,xxx miles. Selling it because a great deal came up for me on a diesel version of the same van. I can drive the diesel van out of state where there are no CNG stations, but always diesel stations. For example, going east, the next CNG station east of Sacramento is Reno. Consult cngprices, cnglocator, or cngnow (search "cng stations" for more sites) to get current CNG filling station information.
If you're unfamiliar with CNG engines, here's a rundown: CNG vehicles have the same engines as standard gasoline-powered vehicles. Only the fuel storage (tanks) and delivery systems (injectors and ECU, or engine control unit) are different. Maintenance for CNG vehicles is the exact same as for a gasoline vehicle.
Filling stations are not as common as gas stations, but in my area (San Francisco bay area) they are plentiful. PG&E has filling stations all around here and the major airports all have filling stations for all of the shuttles buses and many of the taxis run on CNG.
Native CNG: this means it was not a vehicle originally made to run on gasoline and converted to use CNG, but rather one designed at the factory to run only on CNG. These "native CNG vehicles qualify for single-occupant (driver) in the HOV (carpool) lane and 1/2 price bridge tolls until June 2015.
13 Gasoline-Gallon-Equivalent (GGE) tankage means a 180 mile range between fill-ups, which are only $27-30 @ $2.19-2.31 per GGE, almost half the price of the gasoline equivalent, and still 20-30% cheaper to run than diesel at current CNG ($2.24)/gasoline (~$3.89)/diesel (~$4.19) rates.
Standard (most common) length
Slider side door
Cruise control works very well
A swing-door divider is installed and available, but I want $150 extra for it or I'll just transfer it to my diesel van.
Puck style locks means that while a would-be thief could break the window, he still couldn't open the doors and would have to climb in and out over the broken glass.
Shelving - Two steel shelves on the driver's side - 5' x 2' each w/ 4" fence all around
Tires have good tread, better than 1/4" all around, plenty of tread before the "wear bars".
Has A/C, but it doesn't "blow cold", I never had it looked into.
Quite clean - More pictures coming soon, when I clean it out.

Cheap gas has Ford investors nervous over 2015 F-150
Wed, Dec 17 2014Gasoline in the US continues its weeks-long descent with prices down about 13 cents a gallon over last week to $2.544, which is lower by around 69 cents/gallon from this time last year, according to the US Energy Information Administration. Many drivers are welcoming the lower bills at the gas station as a fantastic holiday gift, but Ford investors are somewhat spooked over the potential sales implications for the 2015 F-150. Market analyst Rod Lache of Deutsche Bank recently downgraded Ford's stock from a buy to hold, according to TheDetroitBureau.com, and his report to investors may have played a part in a drop in the company's share price. Lache praised the truck's powertrain and lightweight technology, but wrote, "We question whether consumers will pay the price for this content with $2-$3 gas," in his report, according to the website. Whether buyers actually turn away from the F-150 is mostly speculative at this point because it only recently began production. With around 700 pounds of weight loss thanks in parts to its new aluminum parts, the latest Ford pickup offers up to 26 miles per gallon on the highway, plus segment-best payload and towing ratings. Prices are up somewhat in part to pay for additional standard features, though. Still, any further dip in Ford's stock is bad news this year. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the company's shares are down about 7.5 percent this year. On December 15, the price fell to $14.28, the lowest since November 10. Related Video:
Aussie Ford Falcon GT shows its rear end to Lamborghini Gallardo
Sun, 27 Apr 2014When Ford Australia announces, as it did recently, that it wants to celebrate the end of its Ford Performance Vehicle division with a Falcon FPV GT-F that celebrates big-bore origins of the nameplate, it's talking about the kind of car in this video.
At some point the classic Falcon GT - said to be an XY series - was invited to a test of acceleration against a Lamborghini Gallardo. At the very least, the Falcon GT had a 351 cubic-inch motor and 300 horsepower, but whatever this guy's got under the hood of his yellow sedan makes has him so confident that he doesn't even move his elbow from its resting place on the door.
You'll find a reminder of Ford Australia's heyday, a raucous exhaust note and some NSFW language in the short video below.
Ford dominates most-stolen SUV list
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
The Ford Escape leads the NICB's list with 1,421 examples stolen.
If you drive a recent Ford SUV or crossover, you may want to keep a watchful eye out for thieves - especially if you live in the New York metro area or in Detroit. A new study from the National Insurance Crime Bureau has named three Ford models as the most likely vehicles in their genre to be stolen, with CUVs in general being especially attractive to bandits.
