V5 -- Data driven Tags?

In a Pester v5 implementation, any way to have a data driven tag?

My Use Case:

My Conceptual example:

Describe "Vehicles" {
    Context "Type: <_>" -foreach @("car","truck") {
        # Should be tagged Car for iteration 1, Truck for iteration 2
        It "Should be True" -tag ($_) { $true | should -betrue }
    }
}

TIA

Your example works for me, so the answer seems to be, yes you can do that. Usage examples:

~> Invoke-Pester -Output Detailed
Pester v5.3.1

Starting discovery in 1 files.
Discovery found 2 tests in 12ms.
Running tests.

Running tests from 'C:\Users\wragg\OneDrive\Desktop\so.tests.ps1'
Describing Vehicles
 Context Type: car
   [+] Should be True 18ms (1ms|17ms)
 Context Type: truck
   [+] Should be True 19ms (2ms|16ms)
Tests completed in 129ms
Tests Passed: 2, Failed: 0, Skipped: 0 NotRun: 0


~> Invoke-Pester -Output Detailed -TagFilter car
Pester v5.3.1

Starting discovery in 1 files.
Discovery found 2 tests in 12ms.
Filter 'Tag' set to ('car').
Filters selected 1 tests to run.
Running tests.

Running tests from 'C:\Users\wragg\OneDrive\Desktop\so.tests.ps1'
Describing Vehicles
 Context Type: car
   [+] Should be True 9ms (4ms|5ms)
Tests completed in 66ms
Tests Passed: 1, Failed: 0, Skipped: 0 NotRun: 1
