I honestly didn’t know you could buy a new car for $22,000 anymore.

If anyone is in the market for a sturdy and affordable little car for their kid or spouse, I just got the Nissan Kicks and it’s a perfect car for city driving. If you need a car for groceries, school, church and townie errands then this is a comfortable car for a very reasonable price. It’s a car for someone who needs a new car but has a small budget. Very satisfied here. Just putting out my personal review for anyone looking for a budget vehicle. This is our second Nissan. We have a 2021 Rogue and really like it. We are also Honda lovers. 2014 Odyssey that has never had one problem. Out of our budget at this time.

I was very close to getting a Chevy Trax for my daughter. I find they look very sporty, and have lots of room in the back. Inside also is pretty nice. They also have pretty high reviews

And you can get one for around that price range. She just really wanted a Honda.

My parents just bought a 2024 inch Buick Encore Gx for 23k. It’s really a nice little SUV.

Tesla allegedly producing a small car for under 18k in 2025. The price is right especially given how few affordable vehicles other manufacturers are selling

I got my 2024 Chevy Trax last July for $22,500. I can fit a 6' ladder in it no problem. I think it has the best value in CUV genre.

Interesting description of your daughter. Anyway what did you think about the Trax?

As someone who has bought nissans for the last four vehicles and put 220k, 250, 328k, and 170k so far...with zero repairs.

I wouldn't touch a jatco CVT.

Wife loves her Kicks.

Someone hit her head on less than a year of owning it and totaled it. Looked around for a new car and missed driving her Kicks, so she bought another one.

I haven’t driven a Chevy Malibu since 1982. I don’t buy American cars anymore.
