T100 w/ 220K miles still an OK buy?

[Doc_]

Speaking from experience, my 260k '96 T100 has been steadfast and reliable. I had to do a radiator and cooling system about a year back, but it was all preventative maintenance.
Otherwise, all I've ever had to worry about was service work. If this is a 5VZ-FE engine, either make sure the timing belt has been done recently by the seller or do it as soon as you can, it's the only major Achilles' heel to these trucks.

That and rust it seems. Thanks all for the help! I guess my plan would be to get it for around 2000, and put another 1000 into repairs (tie rod ends, timing belt) to make sure it's totally bombproof.
