I think they are quite good; rust belt weak spot is the front suspension cradle. Exhaust parts can be disproportionately expensive- luckily that doesn't need to be replaced often. I hear there can be a clogged EGR port issue that can burn valves, but I've never dealt with that. 2nd gear syncro won't stand for much abuse.
