New, to me, 13 Expy I picked up for $3k. Only issue, it may need an engine?!? Have to get it home and pull the pan to see what's going on. Oh fun, NOT!!!

Very nice. It "may" need an engine, but it may not either? Lots of miles? Looks great to me...

Not sure yet. I gotta get it home and drop the pan first. Mileage is less than 60k miles. I'm hoping for something in the top end (rocker arm or something). Stalled w/sitting at a light, the lady declined any diag and sold it to the attending advisor who's a friend of mine.

For 3 grand you can swap a newish or new engine and still come out on top

Stalling at lights may be a dirty throttle body "unlearned" after deep battery discharge or battery swap (don't try to relearn, open her up, remove the throttle, and clean the dang thing)... although 60k mileage might also mean that it's never been quite right to begin with

PS tell the HOA to go get pleasured

I took a quick look at the oil condition today and looks pretty clean w/motorcraft filter on it. Looked at the history and this things has constantly been serviced at the Ford dealer, where it’s sitting right now, by one advisor. Not sure if what happened to it but it doesn’t seem to be lack of maintenance.

Check the simple things first. Fuel pressure, ignition. Look for codes. If it didn't go out with a clammer, with 60K miles it's probably not mechanical.

That's an outstanding deal even if it needs an entire long block! My bet would either be electrical or engine upper end. Mine had rocker arm issues with similar miles.

Super clean and nice color. Easily worth it if it comes to motor replacement. You'd pay 15k+ for one w those miles around here. I saw a 2016 EL for $36k w 60k on it earlier today...
