I believe the 2005 Duramax is one of the best used trucks out there.
I would agree with this. An '05 Duramax would be my choice out of the other available options for that year. Great powertrain, and should be a decent truck.
That said, a 10 yr old truck could have any number of problems. While the engine and transmission can last a very long time, other parts of the truck are not as robust. Injectors can become an issue at that age. Check the transfer case for the 'pump rub' issue that is quite common on these trucks.
Good luck!
