It doesn't seem to be in too bad a shape. It has a topper on it. We have not yet been inclined to put a roof rack on the topper, we are thinking of setting up a fork-mount situation in the bed. Maybe some fork mount attachments on a 2x6 plank or plywood.
Ours sounds exactly the same but has 178K on it and we paid $6K, so you did better than us!
