The common theme of a classic is a 20 plus year older car with enough historical interest to be collectable and worth preserving or restoring rather than scrapping. Like a first gen Mustang, 55-57 Thunderbird. In other words, if a just a few parts with added labor or a repaint exceeds the fixed up value all done, it’s not.

Why pay insurance on a undersized tiny truck? Or an El Camino type vehicle. You can own a crossover type vehicle vs a truck to carry home 6 bags of mulch. Put a tarp down if you are bringing home a potted flower. A full size truck, even a V6 one or a hatchback type car are my thoughts. I had a S-10 and it was underpowered and too small for many practical uses. And I was afraid of missing out on Craig’s List and estate sale finds and also overloading it. A Tacoma wouldn’t have been any better. And insurance isn’t cheap on a truck class vehicle, large or small.
