Well the time has come to put my 93 Grand Marquis down. The electric windows stopped working, theres no ac, it needs new brakes, and it needs almost as much oil as gas.

So I am scouring Craigslist for a new junker. This will be the first car I am buying myself so I am pumped about that. No I am not a balla just a poor college student looking for a car to last at least 1.5 years until I graduate and can think about car payments.

So I am pretty set in the 2k range, seem like there are some decent cars in the 100k miles range that should hold up.

Probably going to go take a look at a few tomorrow.

Anyone have any general advice? I am going with my dad who knows a lot more about cars then I do, but all the info I can get is good.

Hopefully take a look at two 95 Ford Escorts if anyone knows how well they hold up.
A 97 Eagle Talon and a 00 Dodge Neon.
