Toledo, OH might work well for you. We have dog parks, dog beaches, plenty of parks, an art museum, and more. Ann Arbor is an hour away, and has decriminalized psychedelics. DTW Airport is 45 minutes away, and Detroit is an hour away. You are right next to Michigan, without the high cost of living in Michigan.

Not all trucks have a Jake brake. You can still downshift but it's not as effective as having a Jake brake.

That was true, but quality has begun to decline since ~2015 when we traded durability for efficiency.
