If you check You Tube, you will find many short videos by people in the biz who say that times have changed, and dealers are way overstocked on High content (expensive) cars, and few less optioned ones. $70-100K pickups are loading many dealers lots, while it is hard to find a 'work truck'. Some of the 'on-line used car companies are already gone, and Carvana is hurting because they bought so many expensive vehicles thinking the shortage would never end.
One guy shows pics of repo auctions with loads of fancy pickups and Dodge Hellcats, etc., bought by people who had a down payment but couldn't keep up the payments, especially since the interest rate has gone up so much.
No real advice, except do your homework and study the current financial conditions and inventories, for what best suits you.
