New guy here and new owner in western NC
What's going on everyone? Figured I'd join up here and introduce myself..... Jared here from the beautiful mountains of western NC. After driving an 07 Edge for the past 6+ years, I finally broke down and bought a truck, as I had gotten to the point of actually needing one. Found this pretty much immaculate 2013 Limited for sale down in SC by the original owner who was an older gentleman that was obviously very **** about maintenance and keeping it clean.... I couldn't pass it up. It has some miles on it, but you'd never know it by looking or driving it..... it's like new inside and out and runs/drives like new. Carfax was 4 full pages of nothing but maintenance stuff.... he had it dealer maintained since new. I've had it for just over 3 weeks now and put about 2000 miles on it so far, and absolutely loving it
Anyways.... a few pics. And yes I'm aware of the front tag blocking the intercooler opening.... I'm taking it off. This was on my way home the day I bought it. It's completely stock other than a leveling kit on the front

Worked like a champ at this past weekends race...... I live in the mountains, so pretty much nothing is flat here, and it yanked my little camper (~2200 lbs loaded) up, over, and back down a pretty steep winding mountain road, literally like it wasn't even there

Wow that is a clean truck!
The more i look at the high end trim 12th gens the more i like them!
You mentioned miles, how many?
Also, curious as to what you paid if you dont mind me asking

It had 160,000 when I bought it..... At 162,492 right now..... Paid $21,500, seemed like a decent deal for a top trim level in this kind of shape and only a 1 owner. I don't know if it's the same where you're at, but trucks are just stupid high around here for some reason. I'm loving it though..... It def looks, runs, and drives like new. Only thing that doesn't work is the telescoping steering column, which seems to be a common thing. I'm thinking its just dirty and binding up.... It tries to move but only moves a cm or so and trips the motor out for overcurrent. I can fix that though

Nice job! Always ”buy” the previous owner not just the vehicle.
That’s price seems pretty good from what I have seen for high mileage trucks.
