I never plan to own a pickup. If I find myself needing one, I'll rent it. Ill only buy one if I somehow end up in construction/contracting as a job and it would make sense.

if someone made an affordable 90s style small pickup I would be so incredibly tempted to buy it. or a kei truck.

You can’t get hilux or the Ford Ranger in the US? The hilux is possibly dear, but the Ford should be cheaper

The hilux is big in Australia, and the Ford Ranger was developed there. They even fit on British roads over here

Hilux is not available for sale in the US, though much older models can be imported

but these modern monstrosities are so bad. the school I taught it, the student parking lot was FULL of F1, F2, and occasionally F350s

A lot of pros and Mexicans here in TX still use older pickups without all of the crew cabs and bells and whistles.
