What is the highest miles you've seen on a Ford Edge?

Just wondering...how many miles do you think you can put on your baby before she outgrows you? I have close to 150k and she's still purring like new.

I have 200,000 on my 2009. I plan for at least one more year, possibly two.

Oh nice, have you been maintaining it well (regular oil changes, tune-ups, etc.), you think you could push it to 300k?

[evh]

Yes, it has had very good maintenance (all done by me.... well most of it). Yes, I think it will easily go 300K. The biggest issue I have now is rust around the rear wheels and under the hood. My current plan is to replace it in the next two years. I do use mine a bit like a truck so it is nice having an older vehicle that I don't worry too much about if it gets a blemish on the inside or out. Having said all of that, here are the items that currently have issues. Some I will address, some I won't:

 

1. Driver's side seat heater has been out for 3 years (I won't fix).

2. Gas gauge is off ever since I was hit in the back. Fuel pump and sending unit were replaced with no luck. I wonder if gas tank recall replacement may fix (baffle broke off and getting in the way of measuring device???) (I won't fix).

3. Coil/Spark Plugs. I have a coil or plug issue and get the kachunk when going about 50mph under load up a incline (has been doing it for 1.5 years, I will get to it....)

4. Rust (I continue to put touch-up pain on it - lipstick on a pig - getting hard to do, area is expanding)

 

Other then that, it is in pretty good shape. Although when I checked the oil the other day a chunk of rust from the hood on the front driver's side corner (under the lip) fell to the ground. The rust was about half the size of your fist. Odd, nothing is showing on top of the hood, but it is all but gone underneath. See attached pictures.
