to hear the opinion of the guys at the diesel section about the engine that powers this rig.

Now I would like to hear your opinion about it. What should I look for in this G? Things I should check before making a decision?

Thanks! Your help is much appreciated!
That engine has been known to have severe over heating problems which damage the head. There is a factory fix, as MB has recognized the problem. You might want to be sure that the factory fix for the problem has been done. Without that, I wouldn't touch it.
