Just noticed you are in Texas. So rust shouldn't be an issue with older stuff. Man you should be able to find something like a late '80 early '90s Civic or Tercel or 323 for cheeeeeap. I am biased towards cars from this era, but having owned a lot of older stuff I can say that if you find a "good" one it will be as reliable and efficient as something much newer, for a fraction of the price.
