96 B3000-Problems?

I'm looking at a 96 Mazda B3000 2WD, Super Cab, AT. It has 167,000 miles on it. I haven't driven it, but it starts good, idles smoothly, and is quiet. No engine noises. It's very clean, doesn't appear to be or have been leaking any fluids. It's a nice truck. How long can you expect these things to go before major rebuilds? It appears that maintenance has been done. Any thoughts or comments appreciated.

The 3.0 engines are very good, I owuldn't be surprised if you got 100k more. The tranny is the only thing that might be a problem.
