Looking to update Ranger. thoughts?

Well, im ready to make a big upgrade from my 93, love the truck, just gettin old. I have been looking at some 02-04 rangers in the supercab 4x4 config just like mine. I have been looking real hard to find one with the 4.0 5spd and bucket seats and I think I found the perfect one. A 2003 Fx4 level II with the 4.0 and a 5-spd it appears nice in the pics but has just over 100 thou miles on it, should I let that bother me? and also, whats the power comparision between the '93 4.0 and '03 4.0, The 93 has a decent amount but could definitely be stronger.

Heres the like to the one im lookin at, tell me what you think http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=235641284&dealer_id=70838&car_year= 2003&num_records=&model=RANGER&systime=&make2=&sta rt_year=2002&engine=&keywordsrep=&keywordsfyc=&cer tified=&fuel=&body_code=0&search_type=used&distanc e=200&marketZipError=false&search_lang=&first_reco rd=276&make=FORD&color=&keywords_display=&page_loc ation=findacar%3A%3Aispsearchform&min_price=&drive =&default_sort=&max_mileage=&style_flag=1&sort_typ e=priceDESC&address=67356&advanced=y&end_year=2006 &pager.offset=275&transmission=&doors=&max_price=& cardist=101

The newer 4.0 rates at 207 hp and Ford has made numerous improvements to the Ranger since 93. The EFI and newer Computer modules are the biggest changes other than the body style and more options.
