Did you see the story about a local Holland, Ohio man (Doug Schell) who has cargo van that is about to reach 1 million miles? Doug bought the used cargo van in 1996 with 40,000 miles on it. In the next few days he expects the odometer to reach 1 million miles which, according to Ford Motor Co., will have the highest odometer reading for any E0-250 in the country!
Doug works for Toledo's Bolt Express driving packages, auto parts, etc. from point-to-point across North America. Would you believe he changes his oil every 10,000 miles (one time he drove it 55,000 miles!), put in a new exhaust system when it was over 990,000 miles, and got 500,000 miles out of his first serpentine belt.
Not everything works on his cargo van --such as the air conditioning, which makes it a "huge sweat box" in the summer. His regular maintenance provider has records documenting the work on this van from the date of purchase.
Would love to hear comments about things happening in Holland, Ohio. Contact me at Sabo@bex.net and let me know what the "NEWS OF HOLLAND, OHIO" is.
