Depends on where you live if it's ethical concerns, but it's hard to go wrong with a berry of some kind.

My suggestions are generic to any vehicle but here goes:

There's inevitably going to be a forum (or multiple) for any car with tips on repairs and maintenance, can be worth checking those out to learn more about your car.

There's the basics of making sure to having fluids and filters checked/changed initially after the purchase, and then keeping to a schedule about what needs doing when. Some vehicle manuals still have that info for the owner, though again the forums might catch on with things that don't get mentioned (PCV valves come to mind).

Brakes can be an easy enough job when it comes up, and often done with basic hand tools. A decent set of tires and brakes does a lot for safety and peace of mind. A little tire pressure gauge could be handy if there isn't a system built-in for it too- saves on fuel and from uneven wear.

Seems like a nice little car, have fun!

Grass huts seem a bit too involved, let's just stand under a tree.

If it's not too much of an eyesore or hindrance, everything on the table?

It might not exactly fit your scenario, but maybe consider a mini PC. Many streaming services work in a web browser, so you could check that all yours are available that way beforehand. I'm partial to Beelink but many companies have similar offerings. Little, quiet or fanless, low power usage.

Costs are a bit higher initially, though it'll likely have security updates longer than an Android box like the Onn one, and having more RAM might lend to that longevity in that role as well.

A mini PC gives you options like switching to Linux, running an arr stack for ditching streaming etc., that might seem worthwhile.

News that'll be a shot in the arm for communities like Bountiful, BC. As opposed to the usual kind.
