They are a decent truck for fuel mileage and torque but do have their problems. The lift pump will fail and the new stock replacements are no better. If you run one for an exteneded period of time with a bad lift pump you will destroy the injection pump (for lift pump and injection pump youre looking at $2000).
The transmission is not that strong either. If engine is modified or you tow heavy expect to replace it for about $3500 to make it last. For some reason these trucks kick in and out of lockup on their torque converter at 45 mph of steady driving. This does not help them.
Front ends are weak. If it has loose steering it can be anything from the steering gearbox, wheel bearings, ball joints, tie rod ends, or traction bar or all of the above. If it has any miles on it at all the steering will wonder. It can b fixed with aftermarket parts but can be costly if everything is shot.
They will do a lot of work but you can expect to do a lot of work back to it.
