Never really paid attention to single cab ads, so can't speak to
that.  The double cab that was for sale here (checked on the bulletin
board on the ferry last night -- Bowen's unofficial classified
central -- and the ad was gone...) was asking about $4000 CDN, and
the truck sounded a bit beat up but nothing terminal.

The Vanocouver area classified paper (http://www.buysell.com) is
probably a good place to start looking for one in this area, although
for some reason I see more "for sales" just driving around or posted
in odd places than listed in the paper...
