I can fully understand the decision to find another truck, there are a number of things stacked against you HOA and all. If you do find another truck just look it over carefully as many folks have said there are some hack jobs out there. A good place to start your search may be a local car show, many times there are projects for sale on display.
I guess I'm lucky that my 4ft 9 in HOA named Linda allows me to do what a love. Good Hunting.
