    Nissan and toyota are dominating the market right now. I sure a three or four year old altima or corolla will more than fill what you want. except for the 28" rims. or.....

    Toyota Camry. Boring car but our 99 V6 has been an excellent DD.

    x2 if MPG isn't a big deal. I bought my truck for 13,9xx out the door. It was new. Not many options but thats what I wanted.

    Usually when I need a DD....I just date a chick who doesn't like to drink.


    I bought at 08 Corolla S.....pay like 350 a month new. Sure you can find cheaper used.

    I get like 36mpg's and half my commute is stop and go interstate traffic. Not a bad looking car, hopefully will last a long time.

    I seriously considered a new Hyundai Elantra though. Base models come with a lot of good options....good mpg's.....low price.....

    :stupid:

    They come with a great warranty too.

    My friend bought one new in '04 and hasn't had any problems with it.

    I had a '00 that I drove for a while and it drove very nice for such a low cost car. For the 14K you could get a brand new with some $$ to spare :nice:

    I picked up a Honda Accord EX-L with a 2.4 vtec for around 14 with 60k Miles. Stilll has 40 k under warranty.

    Every option but the navigation, which would you really want 4 year old tech?

    24/32mpg
