Can you drive a manual transmission? Those do better.
I'm partial to the late '90's Chevy Cavaliers/Pontiac Sunfires. The base model with a manual transmission can get close to 40mpg highway and you should be able to find one in your $2k price range. Parts are readily available and every repair shop can work on them. They aren't as trouble free as a Honda or Toyota, but they are cheaper to fix. If you want a little more power, look for a Cavalier z24. They had a 2.4L engine that will out accelerate most compact cars (and SUVs) but still gets 36mpg highway with a manual transmission.
Dodge Neon's are another good choice. If you are over 6' tall, they are a little cramped, and they don't get as good fuel milage as the Cavaliers. But they are simpler to maintain and also in your price range.
