  • WANTED: Car for my son

    Hey y'all. Not sure if wanted posts are allowed here, so if it isn't feel free to move it, delete it or smack me.

    My 19 year old needs a car. A CHEAP but reliable car (like under $1,500). You know the type. One of those cars you have sitting around that works great but you just don't need it. He needs it.

    He had a truck, but fell asleep behind the wheel and totaled it a couple of months ago & I've been his ride ever since. With summer rapidly coming to an end and no luck finding anything worth a flip on CraigsList, we're getting to the point of desperation. My little one has Autism & I can't be leaving in the middle of the night to go pick him up from work nor can I take him to work due to conflicting special ed. bus/work schedules.

    He doesn't need pretty, he needs something good on gas to get from point A to point B. Most importantly it needs to be reliable. He works nights & nothing is open to fix it if he breaks down on the way home.

    If yall know of anything or have anything let me know, please?

    Tank you!

              Everything on CR is going way too high! My family was in the market for a car for my 18 yet old brother for like 4 months and nothing. Everything was going too high. But luckily today we got him a nice xterra. You will find some thing eventually, have you tried car auctions? I heard they sell cheap there.

                Agreed, Mak. People are asking outrageous "summer prices" lately or something! He can't afford $3500 for a beater/hooptie & being a kid he sucks at saving $ so whatever he gets will have to be whatever he can get with 1 check. He just needs something to get him back and forth to work safely & reliably. Insurance is in place, so at least that's not an issue.

                I haven't tried the auctions because he is paying for it himself, working nights, and well... the scheduling is difficult. Hopefully one of the above pans out for him or something else comes along quickly. His dad has an extra car, but... ugh. That's another story alltogether.
