Ford Club Wagon/Econoline

Positioned at the heart of the full-size van market, the rear-drive Club Wagon was designed to appeal to buyers who needed a large people mover but who wanted to travel in comfort and style. Cargo versions were known as the Econoline. Competitors in this market were the Dodge Ram Van, Rally Van and the Chevrolet G-Series/Sportvan.

Year-to-year changes

1991

The Club Wagon and Econoline each had two trim levels -- E150 and E250 Long Wheelbase.

1994

For this model year, the Club Wagon was available in three different series -- Regular Wagon, Heavy-Duty Regular Wagon and Super Wagon, in one of three trim levels: the base XL, the midlevel XLT and the top-of-the-line Chateau. In a major departure from the competition, the Club Wagon was offered only in a single wheelbase.

The base engine was a 4.9-liter ohv inline 6-cylinder, the only inline Six in the full-size van market. Optional gasoline engines were all V8s: a 5.0-liter ohv V8, a 5.8-liter ohv V8 and a 7.5-liter ohv V8. The optional turbocharged diesel V8, the newly reconfigured 7.3-liter, completed the powerplant lineup.

The standard transmission on 6-cylinder vans was a 3-speed automatic. A 4-speed automatic overdrive was the only optional transmission offered with the 6-clinder engine. The 4-speed automatic was standard on every other engine in the model lineup.

1995

For 1995, the Ford Club Wagon/Econoline benefited from a series of systems improvements. The big news was a new, optional 7.3-liter turbocharged diesel engine, which replaced the naturally aspirated version. In addition, driver's-side airbags were now standard equipment across the line, and all models received a new stainless-steel exhaust system.
