So my younger brother is now a pizza delivery guy , so he has $3k for a car dedicated for delivery , wants to stop using his nicer DD. So what should he get ? The biggest priority is high MPG though and second is ease of working on it himself but he wants a automatic instead of stick, what should he look for ? he does about 700 miles a week. Need some suggestions from mechanic/wrench turners

You want boring and reliable, Japanese small sedan.

Since he's going to be driving it a bunch, make it a fun little car.
Honda CRX or Mazda Miata or VW GTI/Golf |

Manual transmission Neon.
Can probably find one in great shape and low miles for $1500, a single cam model will get close to 40MPG in town, and still have enough guts to deal with traffic. If the Manual is a deal breaker, a Honda Civic with an overdrive transmission. I have delivered a lot of pizza in my day, and MPG and low cost to keep it on the road are very important. There is no such thing as a "fun" car when you are driving deliveries. |

Corolla or Sentra.
Not a Civic. They're too expensive. Alternatively, if you can find a low-mileage Kia or Hyundai and have the warranty transferred... I wouldn't want one out of warranty, though. |
