There are deals out there for under $5K. And these are trucks that you could put over the road tomorrow. I bought this truck at auction for $3235 in the spring of this year. Within that past month drove it over 5000 miles out west through the mountains and back pulling a 48' van drop deck with horses in it. Had to buy one new steer tire and changed the oil. Other than that, I have done nothing. The auction site that has alot of trucks for sale every Thursday is 1800lastbid (note to mods..... this is not a phone number.) Medinna Auctioning services is their name.
Dreams are good my friend and if you want to drive a truck OTR then go for it. Amazes me how many people want to piss on your dreams and tell you that it can not be done. Bull crap! It can be done! Will it be easy? NO!
