Good daily for long term?
I’m thinking about buying an EcoBoost Mustang, and I feel like I’m in the minority because I don’t really care about having the fastest car. I’m not planning on racing it, taking it to the track, or doing any performance modifications. My plan is to leave it completely stock and just enjoy it as a fun daily driver. Reliability is much more important to me than squeezing out extra horsepower. As long as it has enough power to be enjoyable and is comfortable to drive, I’ll be happy. I also plan on staying on top of all the maintenance, including regular oil changes, transmission service, and following the recommended maintenance schedule.
With that in mind, how long can a stock EcoBoost Mustang realistically last if it’s properly maintained? Are there any common issues I should expect over the long term, and would you feel confident owning one well past 150,000 or even 200,000 miles?
