That isnt a bad deal assuming the truck is in good mechanical condition. How bad is the rust?

Like scott said, how bad is the rust? Is it the rust on the inside bottom lip of the doors? If so, some light rust is normal there...

Thats actually a really good deal. Make sure it has plenty of pad life left on the brakes, tires are in decent shape, motor does not smoke & if the interior is in decent shape jump on this
