My daughter is 21 in her last year of nursing school. She can drive well and navigates Lexington KY. She drives a 2009 Ford Focus and it is well worn. Yes, it is my money but will be her car. I do not plan on dropping $$$ for something stupid, unreliable, or has no close dealership no matter where she moves to. Where we live only the big cities have a Mitsubishi, VW, Subaru, BMW… or other dealership.
I wanted to get the general feeling from others. It will of course come down to a mixture of items (MPG, Seating, Interior, Exterior, Visibility, Color, Trunk Space,…) to select a car but reliability has to be close to the top. If used is 2,000-3-000 cheaper than a new one then there will be no reason to get used. I do not like CVT or Hybrids.
My wife has a car she drives only on Sunday but you will see her drag racing it between stop lights and down at the drag strip!!! HA/ HA
