May I humbly recommend 2001-2002 Saturn SL2? 36-38 mpg (42 max). Fiberglass body (doesn't dent). Cheaper and as reliable as the corrolas. Super simple. Millions in the junkyards for cheap parts.
Guys, Listen. This is like saying do you want the hot stripper girlfriend who does lots of "fun things", who might from time to time need some attention from another "mechanic", but is a 10+ on the fun factor hotness scale...or the 30 lb overweight nerd girlfriend who is loyal, low maintenance and her idea of a "good time" is dinner AND a movie? When you are in college, cars, like girls are temporary...go with the fun one.....

I'd put my Saturn and Ford Truck up against anything from overseas or from Chevy .
Yes.buy a toyota or some other cheap dependable car for this task
I only have 57K on mine.So let me get this straight... you think a 28 year old car with those mods only has ONE hundred and ten thousand miles on it? ....
Did you ever have a 7.3 powerstroke with a manual trans?Having owned all of the above and worked on all of the above for a living, nope. I've had two Ford trucks, one old and one new, not doing that again. Saturns are an exception because GM built them like Asian cars until they ruined the brand with badge-engineering in the early 2000s. When GM took Saturn's autonomy and identity, they destroyed the brand.
Nope, '84 with a 302/AOD and 2014 with the 3.7/6R80. Both were worse in virtually every way than the 1999 GMC, 1975 and 1995 Chevy, 2003 Dodge, and now 2008 Toyota trucks I've owned.Did you ever have a 7.3 powerstroke with a manual trans?
