I hear you shuf,get the truck you need but I still would get a toy!
The paint peel issue is bad on some,changing to water base paints is a learning curve that most makers avoided...
But even the old enamels had issues,I've seen perfect hand prints show through,cause someone in the paintshop touched the car/truck with bare hands. When I built cars the paint shop had a big yellow line,gloves must be worn pass this line type thing. If you got caught without said gloves,you got written up and might even get a day or 3 off work.
Every maker has it's flaws,some just have many more than others!
