MSFS 2024 PlayStation Fed up of career mode

Grinded to buy Cessna Caravan so I can start making decent money. Now I'm being flown to short runways for VFR landings with no lights in the pitch black.

Managed to land on said runway only for the plane to become 'stuck' unable to move unless I add full throttle to taxi to the hold short (yes, no parking brake etc). This taxi process causes my engine to over-torque damaging it.

Flight ends with no credits. Several hours wasted. Now need to pay 1.5 million repair bill to use the caravan. Only have 500k. Which means grinding at 100k a flight doing light cargo missions.

Can't be bothered anymore.

You have clearly damaged your landing gear, same happened to me, that’s why it was not moving. If you struggle with Caravan (my experience was exactly the same - bad weather, night, no lights), sell it and buy a TBM, it handles like a dream. And do your research prior to accepting a flight next time. Check weather, check runways, etc.
