South Mississippi. It’s not even hard yo. I got a 1995 GMC truck for you for like $400, it just needs new keys, a new battery, and maybe some gasoline.
I guarantee you can go on Craigslist for your area right now and find cars that run for like $1k or less.
Probably all hoopdie ass shitboxes, but wait a couple months and keep an eye and you’ll find something that runs from the 2000s that’s not a total piece of shit for like $3k, with around 300-350k miles.
Are they great? No. Cheap as hell to insure? Yes. Cost the same price as 5 months of a car payment, and last for years with basic maintenance costs and worse gas mileage? Very likely yes.
In the post I replied to you said you can’t find used cars for less than 10k.
Now you’re saying people are too time/money poor to buy a $1k car, which is true for some, but that’s way different than your last point.
At some point you’re too poor to buy a car, and that sucks. Not sure how cheap people expect a 2000lb hunk of engineered metal, glass, and a combustion engine that can propel you 300 miles should be, but I think $1k is cheap for that and it sucks if you can’t buy it. Either way.
But sitting here and complaining that the cheapest car you can find is $10k in your area is dumb, because what that tells me is all you’re doing is going to look at nice stuff at carvana or CarMax.
Last year, I paid around $5k for my car. It runs well, needs work (that I can do myself), but is overall in good shape. I could have gotten a better deal on it, had I had cash on hand.

Used car? $3000
New car? Sell three children and keep a monthly payment plan.

Bull. I still have most of the cars I bought for $3000 and they still run. You sound inept.
I’m done with this guy. 8 day old account, I’m thinking troll or idiot, unsure which, but either way not worth any time.
Can everyone quit giving me shit?
I got a 1995 GMC Sonoma for sale right now, only asking $400
Yeah it needs a little work, it needs a new battery and new key+ignition lock.
Fuck, where the fuck you people getting used vehicles for $10K?

It only needs about $200 repairs, dunno where the hell you folks keep pulling $1000 out of your collective asses

Live in the Chicago area, have never paid more than $3300 for a used car. You need to stop going to carmax and start looking a private party.

You’re kidding. I have never paid more than $3300 for a used car.
Where can you find a used car for $3k?
Craigslist. Local auction. Random crap for sale at the curb in neighborhoods.
