What did you end up doing? Just replace the engine in my 2013 Limited. On the fence of keeping or do I pay it forward? 90,000 miles and trying to figure out a price

ohhh, I'm following this discussion as I have the same story here. 2013 engine died after stalling out non-stop. Needs new muffler, battery, tires ... :( but $6-8,000 repairs still less than buying even a used something else I want!
I'm looking at having to replace the engine in my 2013 Limited as well. Got a quote from a local independent mechanic with a new 3.5L engine, came in at $8600. $4600 for the engine, Labor is 22 hrs at $100/hr plus changing out all seals/gaskets, etc. With average Trade-In value on my vehicle of $7900, I just think it's not a good investment. I'm also not a fan of putting in a used engine. There's no warranty except maybe a 30-day.
