Get an older Honda. I got a 89 CRX five speed and did brakes and a tune-up and drove it till I got a company truck. I only paid 1800 for it and sold it for 2000 when I got rid of it. It had 132,000 on the clock when I sold it. All I did was change the oil in it. Got great gas milage (40+) and was a ball to drive. I got two tickets within a month of each other.

With the amount of miles you drive in a week I'd never buy anything other than a beater because you are going to beat it to death with that kind of milage.

I agree with the last poster wholeheartedly, AWD, turbos, and superchargers are going to end up costing more than they are worth in the long run on a DD.
