and again, a car thats 11 years old with only 4700 miles will have just as many engine problems as a more used car. its unhealthy to not drive the car, seriously.
plus he doesnt say it was kept in a temperature controlled indoor facility meaning wiring, bushings, most rubber things etc will be worn, and probably mroe fragile since theyre not used to moving.

it did only have one owner. and if the owner lived in tx, then it prolly stayed in a nice, warm, dry area.
horrible for rubber to dry out, you want some moisture, not 90% humidity, but a subtle amount. Texas weather isnt ideal as the constant temp for storing a car. sure rust wont form, but things will crumble. bet the tires are dry-rotted, at the least.
