Yeah you can't get a good one for less than $9,000.
My friend bought his 1996 for $6,[something] in 2005 I think it was?
Bought it from a single owner, had a lot of miles for 10 years did I mention the single owner was a stone mason and he used that Tacoma and a big 2 axle trailer for his stone masoning business.
Needless to say it needed shocks, springs (all around), clutch and rear wheel bearings.

You might be able to get one like this for under $5,000, as long as it doesn't have the diesel and manual trans.
