i have a 2005 6speed off road
the only problem i have had was the belt tensioner wearing out at 42000
80 000 is really not that bad for a used car
things to look for in any used truck-
drive in a parking lot, and turn the front wheels from lock to lock, listening and feeling for vibration or other noise
pay particular attention to how it shifts around third, as this is often the most used gear, and syncro will often mess up from 1st to third.
crawl under the x- the one good thing about the tin foil skid plates is that they show any sign of off roading in wear and strike patterns
look under the gas tank (between the tank and the body) as sand and debris will hide there. if she said that she had never used it in sand, and you find sand up there....
good luck and try not to fall in love with the first vehicle you see.
happy hunting
