Hows this for a deal? 2010 Taco

So I was previously thinking about getting a Frontier. Today I drove a Taco and wow... It was very impressive next to the drive and cheap interior of the Frontier.
I test drove a 2010 AccessCab Tacoma V6 SR5 with 130,000km. The truck drove great everything seemed to be in mechanically good condition. The main issue I had was it had obviously been used for towing as there was a hitch and break controller. There was also a dent in the bumper that was hard enough to push one side in less than the other. I really want a truck that I won't care about a scratch or two. Unlike my last car that I got new and was always worried about a scratch, well that was until it got written off on a trip down to KY. I want something that I can work on and turn into a cool overland truck.

With that being said they are asking close to $19,000. What do you think this is worth? What should I look out for mechanically?
Here is the link if anyone is wondering.

That seems a bit steep since it is a 5 year old truck at this point. not super low miles or high miles. The towing is another thing. Sure its a truck it was meant to do a job but that does not mean that the last owner did the job right.

I walked out of the dealer ship with a brand new taco ( mid you it was a reg cab) in 2012 for only a few thousand more. Whats the asking price for a new access cab in your area ? extra money up front might means less in repairs.
if they were asking 12 or 14 k that would be another story.
Just my 2 cents
