I'm not sure which change you refer to in 2001 when the "whole body went aluminum", but it is my understanding that several wood frame members in the shell were switched in aluminum or steel in 2003/2004. I believe that was also around the time they started mounting the AC on the roof, although that may have happened in 2002. There still is wood in TM's today as I understand it, just not as much, and none on the edge of the shells.

At some point in the last few years, they started installing a higher quality 3-stage charger/converter, but I don't know when specifically. Someone here will, as I know that info has been posted here before (and thus accessible through the SEARCH function).

But all this is probably somewhat irrelevant because used TM's come on the market so infrequently that you likely will not have a choice as to which year you buy.
