well sometime in the last 300 miles.....
Nothing that day, and I drove it for hours before it happened.

Did you look into the crank sensor yet?
Your crank sensor may have a metal buildup on the tip, causing this. Pull it and look.

Stop wasting your time and money. Any trustworthy, reputable Ford techs in the area?

My guesses:
1.Jumped timing chain - you said you were heading to the exit, could have jumped during deceleration.
2.bad coil pack/packs -I had on an MGM and it go 20-30 mins, then stall. like clockwork. But it would restart and run smoothly.
I live in the SF bay area, tons of shops and dealers.... also crazy expensive. worked in a shop for years myself, but injuries have me working at 10% the speed I used to (and I now have a business that keeps me busy)
I'm really hoping it didnt jump the timing chain.... I know I had the infamous startup rattle,but it always went away within a second.
downshifting and blipping the gas is something I may have done... been too long to remember if I did that.
best way to check the timing chain short of removing all the accessories front cover and both valve covers?
I put a full set of new MSDs on ~1000miles before this happened.
their cheap line of coils, but still a full set.

+1 on the coils, buy motorcraft
I'm starting to wonder if anyone read the first post.....
I'm not going to throw parts at it.
I already have a full set of new coils, the problem is not coils. I'm experienced enough to be 100% its something else. Sure the coils/plugs might have a fault,but with low miles on new cops/plugs but enough miles to be sure they are installed properly and working well.
