I am a college student looking to spend as little as possible on gas. Have money saved up and parents will help a little with down payment so price isnt TO big of an issue but definitely something less than $18,000. Daily Commute is 10 minutes and i sometimes ride my bike, but take longer trips on the weekend to L.A which is about 30 mintues to an hour away. If you have a small fuel efficient car and had a good or bad experience let me know! thank you!
