the 2007 has 84k miles 1 owner with an accident and the 2013 has 184k miles 1 owner no accidents ....both 10k, same condition other than miles- which one would you buy?

I would go for the 2007, it has another 150k miles or more in the engine and transmission, the 2013 probably only has 70k miles before it needs some major expense.. apart from the 2 piece spark plugs the 07 was a reliable expedition

Is this going to be a daily driver for a family, or an extra vehicle that will see limited use?

Even with 184K there is still plenty of life left in 2013 King Ranch, especially if its reserved for weekend road trip type duties.

For daily use I'd probably lean towards the 07.

Wow, I got my 07 xl, 3 months ago with 162k miles and only paid 2400 everything works minus the 4x4 was a rusty actuator. Pass front window motor replaced and typically paint peeling

My 07 is a great machine

Go for the 2013 King Ranch because either way you’re going to have to dump money into reconditioning the motor in either one sooner or later.

To me, the delta or difference is all fluff, how the truck is optioned & appointed.

Mechanically, there is a wear delta of 100,000 miles....substantial to me.

Good luck whichever way you decide!!
