Great van. 460, C6 with 4.11 gears. Got to be running some pretty high RPM's at highway speeds. I tow a 2019 Airstream Flying cloud 25' trailer with a 2013 Ford E150 XLT Premium van with every factory option offered at the time. 70 MPH (my max towing speed for safety) is 2200 RPM. Driveline is the 5.4, 4 speed od tranny with Dana 60 3.73 LSD. Tows like a champ. Even though it is a E150 it is rated at 8600 GVWR and 2500 LBS cargo rating. A true horse!!!! 12 MPG towing and 17 MPG not towing. 33 gallon tank. Love vans.
Thanks for posting this video!! Growing up our grandpap had a 79 super wagon, 2 tone metallic blue and beige, same exterior trim. It was an absolute staple in our family and all friends and relatives remember it fondly! One distinctive thing with the early super wagons were the rear springs, 4 1/2" full length plies that had the ability to launch all kids in the rear most seat into orbit with the proper bump and right commands given to the captain! (It was the 80s, fun overrode safety!). The later models were built much lighter in my opinion. Don't see many of these anymore, let alone in this immaculate condition!
I remember these when I was young on the roads. Beautiful van for its time. Just cool all around.
Awesome van thanks for sharing 👍.
Some people really hate these vans. They are probably some of the best things to come out of the American auto industry, especially the conversions.
Awesome van!
SUPER WAGON!!!!!! The SUPERMAN of station wagons!
Very nice
Interesting Van. I am very interested in buying your van.
Is the van for sale?

You forget to say it gets 8 mpg, 460 is big dirty pig heathy appetite for gas try a 300 engine next time.
You right, specialy with a low ratio end and a trailer.
I’ve an 1989 E250 Club Wagon, 351W and 4.15 end ... 9 mpg
What a long winded way to say your broke and boring 😂
6.0 diesel, 4.9 might be a little slow moving, 6.0 can sound awesome
