  1. This is why you should NEVER buy a Ford. I've been driving Toyota for the last 14 years and haven't had a single major unexpected problem. I had about 950,000 miles on 3 vehicles with 1 transmission replacement. That was it. But I liked this Ford Edge at my favorite dealership and it was a reasonable price with 135,000 miles on it (not scary when my last two cars both hit 400,000). 5 weeks after I bought it my friend was driving it to Nashville to pick up my previous car to bring it back up here to replace the transmission so I could use it as a backup or sell it and 40 miles after he picked it up from me it died on him on the highway. The Low Oil Pressure indicator came on and it immediately shut itself off and never started again. He's a mechanic so knew immediately that whatever was wrong was serious and not to touch it. I went out there to pick him up and we towed the vehicle to the dealership where I purchased it. Now I need to buy a new engine for a 5 week old SUV. After 14 years of NO unexpected major repairs, I'm looking at putting in a used engine from a junked car, or spending $8000 on a 5 week-old SUV with 150,000 miles on it. I will NEVER buy a Ford again and make it my mission in life to convince other people to stay away from these garbage vehicles.
