Default Is this a good buy?

New guy here, looking to get a jeep, will mainly be used for hunting.
I know this isn't a steal or anything but does it seem like a decent buy?
Thanks guys.

Edit, I talked to the guy and it is an auto, not a manual.

Def worth checking out for sure. $5k is a good price for the 4.5 rough country/brand new 33's/low miles.

Obviously check for rust, any poor maintenance or bad leaks or whatever that sticks out, check the oil, and take it out on the road (try to get it to 55-60 just like any jeep you check out)

If there's any wobble it's not a deal breaker at all and is easy to fix, but could give you a chance to low ball him a bit. Don't tell him you'll be using it for hunting, because ya - for a non-daily driver wobble wouldn't matter anyway. Either way I'd try to get it for $4500 or so, not that $5k is too bad of a price.
