My son just graduated from college in December. He just got a great job in a nearby town. The commute is 45 miles roundtrip and he will also have some local travel in his personal car around town. His father and I would like to buy him a good used car with the following requirements: reliable, good fuel economy, nice enough to drive clients in , and between $10 to $12 thousand. This will be our graduation gift to him, along with the offer to live with us for the next 2 years rent free, as long as he his saving some money to live on his own. Does anybody have any suggestions on cars that would fit in the above criteria? Ideally this car would last him several years while he built his income. Lucky for him he only accumulated about $8 thousand in student loans and we expect he can pay this back while living at home.
