The original E-Series Ford "Econoline" was also known as the Ford Falcon Club Wagon and was considered a Compact Van. It was renamed the Econoline Wagon in 1999.
Ford implemented a new design of placing the driver's seat over the front axle with the engine near the front wheels in a style which is known as "Cab Over" in the United States and revered to as "Forward Control" in Europe. This design evolved from Jeep designs used in the mid-50s.
The Econoline model has long been a favorite for fleet vehicles for utility companies and repair shops and in the aftermarket the E-Series is the Van which is stereotypically thought of as transporting young garage bands and their equipment between gigs.
