Ford Edge and Minnesota auto shop owner Chad Volk staged an accidental time-travel caper, unearthing a wallet lost for 11 years—complete with Ford employee Richard Guilford’s ID and $15, prompting “Who finds lost wallets in cars?” and “How to track missing car factory items.” “I never wore sweatpants to work, but I did that day,” Guilford recalled.

That sweatpants confession set the stage for the wallet’s 150,000-mile odyssey, wedged above the transmission while the Edge outlasted its own North American production run. Searchers found everything intact—gift cards, cash, employee ID—fueling queries like “What’s the weirdest thing found in used cars?” and “Do car assembly lines lose worker belongings?” The real punchline: an 11-year-old wallet survived better than most GPS units.

After two thousand cars and 150,000 miles, a $15 wallet outlived the Ford Edge’s entire North American career—making it the most reliable option package in Minnesota history.
