If you're searching for a capable, work-ready truck at a price that makes sense, this 2013 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab XL 4WD for sale at North West Auto Empire in Kent, Washington deserves a serious look. Powered by Ford's legendary 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbo V6, priced at $15,990, and ready to handle everything the Pacific Northwest throws at it — this is a truck built for real life.
About This 2013 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab XL
At 145,333 miles, this F-150 sits right in the sweet spot for a used truck buyer who wants proven dependability without the premium price of a lower-mileage unit. The F-150 platform is one of the most thoroughly tested in automotive history — trucks in this generation routinely push well past 200,000 miles with regular maintenance. The SuperCrew cab configuration means you're getting a full four-door layout with genuine rear-seat space, making it as practical for hauling passengers as it is for hauling cargo. The 5.5-foot bed gives you a solid balance between bed capacity and overall vehicle length — easier to maneuver in parking lots, job sites, and around town while still handling most loads a working truck owner needs.
2013 Ford F-150 Performance and Engine
The 3.5L EcoBoost Twin-Turbo V6 — Ford's Game-Changer
When Ford introduced the 3.5L EcoBoost in the F-150, it changed the truck market forever. This engine produces around 365 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque in its 2013 configuration — numbers that rival traditional V8s while delivering meaningfully better fuel economy. Twin turbochargers spool up quickly, giving you strong low-end torque right where truck drivers need it most: towing from a stop, merging onto I-5 with a loaded bed, or climbing grades on Highway 18 or SR-167.
The 6-speed automatic transmission pairs smoothly with this engine, offering responsive gear changes whether you're in stop-and-go traffic on the Kent stretch of 167 or cruising out to the Cascade foothills. Four-wheel drive means you're equipped for wet winters, muddy job sites, and anything in between. Western Washington's rainy season is not the time to wish you had 4WD — this truck has it.
Ford F-150 Features and Interior
XL Trim — More Than the Base
The XL may be the entry trim, but in a 2013 SuperCrew configuration, you're getting a genuinely comfortable and functional interior. The SuperCrew body style brings full rear doors and a rear bench that comfortably seats adults — not a compromise back seat. Expect power windows and locks, a functional center console, and Ford's durable cloth seating that holds up well in working environments.
The dashboard layout in this generation F-150 is straightforward and driver-focused. Many examples at this trim level include auxiliary audio inputs, and Ford's intuitive controls mean you won't spend time hunting through menus. Trucks that work hard need interiors that are easy to clean and hard to break — this one delivers both.
Ford F-150 Reliability and Ownership
What Owners and Mechanics Say About the 3.5 EcoBoost
The 2013 F-150 with the 3.5L EcoBoost has earned a strong reputation among truck owners and independent mechanics. Early concerns about the EcoBoost engine — things like timing chain wear and carbon buildup — were largely addressed by this model year, and the 2013 generation is widely considered one of the more refined versions of this powertrain. Ford had two years of real-world data and owner feedback behind them by 2013, and it shows in the engine's reliability track record.
Owners consistently report this powertrain delivering solid performance well into the 150,000–200,000 mile range when maintained properly. The 6R80 six-speed automatic is a durable unit known for longevity. 4WD components on this generation are robust and proven. If you're buying a used truck in this mileage range, the F-150 with the EcoBoost V6 is one of the smarter choices in the segment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 2013 Ford F-150 a good used truck to buy?
Yes — the 2013 F-150 is widely regarded as one of the stronger used truck options in its price range. The platform is proven, the EcoBoost engine is capable and efficient, and SuperCrew models offer full-size family and work versatility. At 145,000 miles, this truck has plenty of life ahead with proper care.
Is 145,000 miles too many for a 2013 F-150?
Not for this engine and platform. The 3.5L EcoBoost F-150 is well-documented running reliably past 200,000 miles. At 145,333 miles, this truck is in what many mechanics call the "proven reliability" zone — enough miles to have worked out any early issues, but well short of end-of-life for a maintained example.
What does the XL trim include on a 2013 F-150?
The XL is Ford's base trim, but in a 2013 SuperCrew configuration it includes full four-door access, a rear bench seat for adult passengers, power windows and locks, and a practical, no-frills interior designed for durability. It's the trim of choice for buyers who prioritize function over luxury features.
How is the fuel economy on the 3.5 EcoBoost F-150?
The 2013 F-150 3.5L EcoBoost was EPA-rated around 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway in rear-wheel-drive configurations. In 4WD, expect figures slightly lower, but the EcoBoost consistently outperforms traditional V8 trucks in real-world fuel economy — one of the key reasons Ford's EcoBoost became so popular with truck buyers.
Does this F-150 have four-wheel drive?
Yes. This truck is equipped with 4WD, making it well-suited for Western Washington's wet winters, unpaved roads, and occasional snow. Whether you're navigating flooded streets in the Kent Valley or heading toward the mountains on a weekend, 4WD gives you the traction and confidence to handle it.
