Default Buying an 01.

I should be getting an 01 next week with 110,000 miles. Has an 06 front clip. Banks chip, 4" exhuast, and banks gauges.


Is there anything in particular with these vehicles that I should check before purchasing?

The injectors would be out of warrenty if they should go bad. the 01's have a headgasket that isnt as strong as the other truck 02 and up. sometimes it can be a problem. but other than that its a solid truck.
