$7k doesn't sound bad, but you need to get a scan tool and do your research. Lots of things to look for on the test drive. Make sure you get to test drive it when it is "stone cold" and keep testing until fully warmed up. Testing at start up when cold and when hot can tell a lot.

The list of work you posted "sounds good", but it all depends on what parts were installed and who installed them.

Specifically find out what brand (as well as aftermarket or OEM) was installed for:
Head gaskets
Injectors
Turbo
Oil cooler
IPR and ICP
FICM (ie OEM rebuild or a rebuild from someone else)
Radiator

I would also want to see receipts and know about any warranties for the work.

That is a lot of money to put into a truck to sell for only $7K
