My wife has one. we have 160,000 on it. EXCELLENT truck.
NEVER use the AUTO 4WD. They pop in and out of four wheel, and bends the fork in the transfer case.
There is an intermediate steering shaft on these trucks that are noisy, tend to rattle when going over bumpy roads. ive been told that it does not cause any issues, and I have not had any.
front bearings go out at 125-150000 - easy replacement - took me an hour for two. only needed one special socket - 37mm i think.
those are the only two problems we've had. (other than her hitting things and the kids beating the crap out of the interior - oh well)
looks like a great price...those are still going for 8-10k here.
good luck.
