Default which code reader should I buy

Don't have fancy phone at my age so that's kind of out . But I know its a question of time before I will need a code reader . I have old o2 sensors and old cats so I guess its time to learn a new way .
So far auto zone has done it for me but I realize one day I won't be able to drive it there.
I have a 05 3.4 l 3v 170k mi with a new timing set and new lash adjusters with rollers .
She's a good looking white beast that works on the farm and in the woods. She's pulled many tractors and trees down . The white fiberglass tonneau is full of tools and chainsaws when my wife isn't having me haul a ton of pottery clay. . She has some battle scars but looks better than me .
Thanks for your input .

Still using my 10 year old Actron CP9180.

If I needed one today I would probably go with an Autel.

Basic one is $25 (AL319)

AL619 lets you check ABS lights.
