This thing:

$895 firm! No lowballs! I know what I got (1993 Metro with 183,000 miles)

Are there any version of the Focus that qualifies? The best that I see is 32 MPG highway (despite claims by the sellers)

Finally! A Mitsubishi Mirage in my price range: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/c...995435918.html

If it were a manual it would qualify, but alas! Another autotragic! Oh the humanity!

The only Chevrolet that I might ever consider! 2001 Prizm with 160,000 miles, but I cannot figure out whether it has the three- or four-speed autotragic. They are rated 30/36 MPG respectively: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/c...995405605.html

This may not be 35 MPG, but I don't care, a $500 OBD-II Civic?! https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/c...993047701.html

Not 35 MPG, but I can tell from here the front bumper doesn't have Gorilla Tape!

(I am pretty sure that it does not have footprints in the roof, either!) https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/c...993046228.html

Only 20 MPG! Do I still come out ahead not having a vehicle with better clearance and whatnot when it snows? https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/c...993002819.html

There is no way of knowing how much snow we will have...

I just do not like canceling.

Is this an LX with HX rims? It says that it needs a new catalytic converter, which is integrated with the exhaust manifold on the 2000: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/c...990284373.html

This tiny useless thing only gets 31 MPG?! 2007 Chevrolet Aveo: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/c...988171313.html

It looks like this 1998 manual HX is still up: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/c...997132888.html

2001 Civic with one picture showing a hovering hood: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/c...997809327.html

I will check Facebook and OfferUp when I have a chance.
The prizm is a rebadged corolla, very very good car, and even with an auto 40 mpg should be attainable. I'm fairly certain a 2001 prizm would have a 4-speed auto, with 4 being OD.
