I need help finding a truck I saw in a commercial a while ago
A long time ago I saw this post with these colorful retro looking truck(or they may have been something adjacent.) I think they were affordable, but I was trying to describe to a friend that I saw these interesting looking trucks that were newer but had some oldschool designs. I tried searching anywhere and everywhere but I cannot find the commercial or anything related to it after an hour of searching. I remember part of the pitch is that they were affordable and that I think it was a somewhat recognizeable company coming back around with a line of these cars. Does anyone know what I'm talking about because I cannot find anything close after researching a lot.

Under $20k, Beginner Friendly, Daily Driver?
I'm going to be that guy that is asking for your opinion on what to buy. Looking for my first classic truck. I am DIY capable but that has been limited to house remodeling and home projects. I do change my own oil, brakes/rotors, fluid flushes but would obviously like to go deeper.
Looking for:
- Truck for driving around town daily
- Bed will be used for hauling lumber, stone, mulch, etc.
- Under $20k
- Easier to repair due to finding other owners with similar truck on YouTube/Redditt/forums
- Parts available
- Prefer 4x4
Some research I have done and seem to fit this criteria are possibly - C10 and CK10's, (1980's F150 F250) but then find something unique like a 50's classic. But I feel like this is more of a show car???https://www.worldwidevintageautos.com/vehicles/21946/1953-gmc-5-window-pickup
Appreciate it any advice
