    Got any records or vehicle history?

    The early (05-06) 2nd gens had known head gasket issues and you're close to the "pop" milage hopefully that's already been rectified.

    Also check your frame around the front motor mounts if you haven't had a recall frame replacement in it's history, they revamped the frame horns there in 07 I believe due to frequently cracking in that area.

    Carfax shows good maintenance throughout the years, it has a bit of rust but just surface rust on the bed and door frames which I will be repairing within the next week or 2. The frame looks solid it looks as though it has been either replaced or had the special coating applied to it, it's solid for sure I checked the frame before I even test drove it. I'm not really worried about the head gasket issue as where I have replaced head gaskets before with no issues after repairing them unless toyota has an uneven top and head issue
