Randy,
Welcome to RV.net.
The 6.8 liter V10/Ford chassis was a big step forward from the earlier 460/older chassis.
At that age, condition and how it was maintained will be very important.
Don't overlook the expense of the tires-- they generally age out rather than wear out. If the DOT number (last 4 digits indicate the WEEK and YEAR) says they are over 6 years old, figure on a new set of tires.
