As always look for any rust along the undercariages,etc. Also, since it is an auto make sure it doesn't slip. If you can, accelerate with it to really test it out. A slipping auto=expensive rebuild or replacement. If the car drives slugggish, it may just need a good tune up. A tuneup to a 5.0 car can really wake them back up. Good luck!
