Pop these suckers up on both back doors. They are just held in with little tension clips and will pop right out and right back in. To look for signs of water from the third brake light.

That's a really good price range if everything checks out.

I paid a lot more for my KR 3 years ago...but mine did have 61k miles. For 13k, I'd say it's a very fair price. What's the interior look like?

The interior is in good shape. Obviously, the seats could use some conditioning, etc. but there are no real wear signs, even on the steering wheel.

If I can get them to spring for the tires of my choice, will 295/70r18 fit without a leveling kit?

Good. The KR skin is VERY expensive to replace, which is why you need to make sure there are no tears or holes in the leather

I think those will be a little big without a leveling kit. 33" is about the biggest without the leveling kit. 35" will fit with a 2" level but this is all general as tire width will come into play some too.

I paid 13k for a 2007 Lariat couple weeks ago my buddy owned. It's a crew 4x4. It has 150k on it and has sunroof, navigation, sliding rear window. He recently had timing chain replaced because a sensor or something in the dash came on and he had them go ahead and replace it while they were in there because of the mileage. I can't remember all what it was but I know him well which was a big factor in purchasing it. Bank said they would loan up to 16k on it. Not a KR but I wouldn't consider that price high.

I picked up an '08 5.4 XLT 4x4 for $12K a couple weeks ago.
They dumped about $4k into the engine before purchase. and about $1000 after purchase (heater core)
The Cam phasers, timing chain, spark plugs, and some sensors where all done.
So all major issues reported with the truck are taken care of except the exhaust bolt issues...(Not sure about that one yet!)
156k on the odo.

Also notable the King Ranch models seem to hold their value better than lower models do. The same two trucks with standard features for each model a King Ranch in my area is about $3,000 more than an XLT with same mileage color ect.
