I third the used car option. If you're handy and have a space to work, you can get great deals for ~$1,000.

If you're not handy or don't have a space to work, you can get excellent, reliable cars for <$5,000.

Besides, insurance and registration are also WAAAAAYYYYY less with a vehicle that is about 8 years old :-)
