service records are a must!! go with your heart.... the vw is newer !!!!
The Ford is probably the way I would go, but you are in Germany so MPG is a prime consideration which might give the VW the edge. Also buying a vehicle that is not a collector car is never a good "investment" as it will always go down in value.
Keep in mind the Edge is not a high speed vehicle. A lot of Ford trucks are limited to 100 mph, don't know about the Edge. If I were going to be blazing down the Autobahn an Edge would not be my choice.
