I’m contemplating replacing the rotors on my '07 Sport Trac. Using a caliper to measure the width of each rotor, what measurement would indicate that l should not turn, but replace them?

Should be stamped on either the outer edge or on the hub

If they are not warped and still within specs for thickness and no deep gouging, I just use the old ones as is.

$20 each to turn and a good chance they’ll warp a lot easier  
$30 each for brand new quality ones
