No way that truck on the right is only worth $1k but the point remains. Back in in 90s I bought my first truck for $600 and it was rough. Didn't run and needed a lot of work. My used truck I bought in 2017 for cash is still holding the same value. Status trucks are for weak men.
My first car purchase was a mitsubishi eclipse that didn't run which I bought for $100 because they thought the engine was shot & I had it running a couple of days later.
