He needs to use the $3000 and pay and extra 1-2,000 and get a high mileage Honda or Toyota.

Teach him now to pay cash for cars.

It will save him so much over his lifetime.

While I agree, he wants a low mileage car because he takes a lot of trips into Arizona/New Mexico, and he is often driving in areas where there is no cell coverage or people. He wants something reliable.

It seems that right now, some manufacturers are offering new cars for about the same cost as a low mileage used car because of the incentives they are offering right now.
