what to look for in a used 3rd gen

Hey,

I am going to purchase a new to me truck sunday or monday, I have a few I am looking at. 3 of them are 06s, 2 05s and 1 07. What should I be looking for? I know it's a general question, but every truck has a certain something that isn't good. As far as the 05s, are injectors still an issue on that year? I am aware that the ball joints are an issue on these trucks, so that will be the first question. Any advice to steer me in the right direction would be much appreciated. Thanks, Brendan

The entire front end is an issue lol

07 5.9? or 07 6.7?

If you can get your hands on a 5.9...go with that. I have one and my dealer wants it big time. Apparently he gets calls daily from people looking for them now.
