Apparently the OT does not believe in the existence of daughters.
I was thinking this but then thought maybe the OT has respect for the poster and to fight the urge to "ask for pics" they act like he said son
. Per my experience in car sales, Do Not get a before 2012 Ford Escape. Get her a mid 2000s CRV and you will both be happy..

This. You should have no problem getting a safe, reliable vehicle under $5,000.

F= found. (Ok)
O= on (ok)
R= side ( don’t think so)
D= of the road ( for Christ’s sake)
The correct answer we were looking for is
“ what is Found on(off) road dead.

If he wants a better car let him buy it.
Until then let him drive whatever you give him.

I was always fond of "fricker Only Runs Downhill."
But to answer the OP, Ford Escapes are cheap. I bought one recently that had a whole host of issues. The back glass latch fell off, the windshield leaked, sunroof motor broke, and sunroof leaked, and a few other quality issues. It ran fine though. But for a first time car that will likely be wrecked soon, you could do worse.

Definitely having her contribute some of not all towards insurance. She's 17 so hopefully insurance will drop a little in 9 months when she turns 18.

It looks like 01-05 era xterras are pretty good deals too. I think I might feel a bit better about a Nissan with over 100k miles on it than Ford.

I went thru this with my daughter 5 years ago. It was impossible to find a good used car for 5k. I ended up paying 8k for a 2009 Ford Fusion. Never an issue.

Get a Camry with 50,000-70,000 miles on it. You'll spend a little more than you are talking right now, but they can be had for 8k. Hell, ill sell you my 2012 with 76 on it for 5, although it's a little beat up. haha. I sold my last camry, 2009 with ~115,000, for 5k and I never experienced a single issue with it. Im sure it is still running fine.
