There are plenty of vehicles that even a very large person can utilize that get much better than either of your vehicles and can be had for under $9K. I'd sell the Impala and get a more fuel efficient sedan. An Accord with manual trans comes to mind. Hypermiling it should get you in the 40s I'd imagine. They're also pretty good in the snow.
