How many miles will a 2000 E-350 last?
The 30 mileages owners gave run from 8,000 to 213,723 miles. A quarter are at or under 65,936 miles, half at or under 99,000, three quarters at or under 169,000 and nine in ten at or under 183,900; 15 (50%) came after 100,000 miles, 10 (33%) after 150,000 and 2 (7%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2000 E-350 wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.

Is the 2000 E-350 a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2000 is a good or a bad E-350: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2000 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 59 complaints, the 2000 ranks 5th of the 32 Ford E-350 model years from 1986 to 2022 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 1997 (78). The fewest: the 2009 (10).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1986 E-350 | 11 | 1 | Under 10 mileages |

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2000 E-350 lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2000 E-350.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 29 of the 59 complaints on the 2000 Ford E-350 give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA names counted: E-350 and E350. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only these.
- Recall-file names matched: E-350 and E350.
