V6, what to check for?

I'm considering a used 01 V6 with about 115K to replace and 01 4 cyl. I've not dealt with the V6 before so what do I need to check for other than timing belt service every 60k. Will the V6 be as rough on all the engine mounts?
EPA MPGs are 17/23 with the 4 cyl auto using regular and premium in the HO. V6 gets 16/24. Real world seems to be a little higher with the V6 on the highway and significantly with the 4 cyl. In town is probably about right for the V6 if you drive more than gingerly? Can you use regular in the V6?
