i always check the body panel alignment on a truck thats just seems like a really good deal check the door jams for a paint line if its been painted before you dont want someone selling you something that had previously got in an accident and i would definitely check the front end that could be expensive. My personal favorite is look at the brake pedal if its worn alot that means alot of stop and go driving. P.S. when the engine is running remove the oil fill cap and see if its puffing white smoke and set the cap back down without screwing it down if it dances around that means blow by wich is 90% of the time ringsss

Not sure how they are doing now, but the first few years of the 6.7's had EGR, DPF and related turbo issues. Ask about how the regen cycles are going and ask to look in the tubo to see if it looks sooted up.
I would not buy one that did not have those deletes done to it.

thanks if i did buy one that did not have them done EGR and DPF deletes would be the first thing i'd do to it, but the truck im currently looking at does have them done
