Default best deal ?

Ill possibly be in the market for a truck here in a couple months. so i have a few questions for you guys .. aiming for used , under 10K$

it needs to be a good towing vehicle. Ill be towing my del sol on a trailer.. im not going to pull a dolly, so im guessing 3500 lb towing capacity?

4x4 of course. dependable , ext. cabs are a big plus, and easy on gas for what it is .. i know i dont have much room to work with there unless some v6 trucks could handle the towing.. i would also love to look into going mudding / offroad with the truck so expandability would be a plus.

any ideas?

tia.

I hear lots of good from the tacomas, their a little expensive. A friend of mine bought a bronco for dirt cheap and it tows and hauls like hell. Not sure if its 4x4 tho. Its going to be hard getting a good 4x4 for cheap.
