That's been my approach so far, I bought my Ford Ranger used with low mileage and its a 2003 with less than 90k on it. I don't use it for commuting since I've WFH for years.
I'm interested in the EV trucks they're starting to produce, although I'd like the truck to be smaller and for vehicles to be less phabletey and certainly not to come with subscription O/S upgrades.
