The 2012 Ford Econoline runs a median of $12,000 across live Canadian listings, with most sitting between $8,495 and $15,999. That's a wide spread for a single model year, and it tells you the price hinges more on trim and mileage than on the badge alone. If a seller is asking near the top of that band, you want a reason for it in the odometer or the spec.
Median mileage lands at 215,882 km. For a work van pushing past 200k, that's the baseline, not a red flag, so don't let the number spook you into overpaying at the low end or writing off a clean high-mileage example. Judge each one on condition and price, not the six digits.
What mileage does to the price
Every extra 10,000 km knocks about $341 off the asking price. So a van sitting 30,000 km above the median should run roughly $1,000 cheaper, all else equal. That's a modest slope, which fits a vehicle bought to be driven hard. Use it as a check: if two otherwise similar vans are $2,000 apart, the mileage gap should more or less account for it.
The trim split is where the real money shows up. The Super Duty carries a median of $15,999, typically $14,900 to $18,499. The Commercial sits at $9,995, ranging from $8,419 to $15,242. That's a $6,000 gap at the median. If your job doesn't need the Super Duty's heavier build, the Commercial is the value pick, and its wide range means a patient buyer can land one near $8,400.
Eight of these have been flagged as deals in the last 90 days, so priced-right examples do surface. If you're eyeing a Commercial under $10,000 or a Super Duty near the bottom of its band, that's the zone worth chasing.
