I ran the motor pool for our County for several years. The old Ford Taurus from 2000 to 2007 was hard to beat for reliability and used to be dirt cheap because Ford was dumping so many of them into fleet sales. However the last few I sold off went for prime dollar at auction and the last ones are from 2007 they were mostly fleet only and are now 5 years old so you'd be the 3rd or 4 owner. I personally am running a Honda Accord that's 21 years old and at 275,000 miles. We bought it new and it's never had a major repair BUT maintenance is expensive, parts can be dear to buy and resale is high on them. I like our Honda but being objective I think you might buy something else and get newer and fewer miles for your dollar. Bottom line WHAT DID I PUT MY DAUGHTER IN WHEN SHE HEADED OUT TO COLLEGE? A Ford Fusion, I bought it 3 years ago for about 11K with less than 60,000 miles. She is at 80,000 mile now all we have done is oils changes and brakes. This also reflects my experience with the Fusions I had in the county's fleet. I'd stay with the 4 cylinder model it'll get in the mid 30's on the highway. If you shop careful you should be able to find one pretty close to your budget.
