Seriously, I’ve spent like an hour searching and there appear to be absolutely no used cars in the US or Canada priced at or under $500. In fact, they’re not even really close. I can only find a handful of cars under $1000, and they all seem to be parts cars that have major issues that are insurmountable for all but experienced mechanics who happen to have a spare engine laying around.
Am I just searching in the wrong places or what? Where have all the cheap-ass cars gone in this car-mandatory society?
Have you check if an e-bike can fulfill your needs?
I don’t think a used $500 ebike can be modded funny enough for a gambler, or go 500 miles offroad.
That said, I have an ebike that I use for 100% of my day-to-day actual transportation and I love it so much I sold my actual car.
English is not my first language and I don’t understand what gambler means on that context and tough it just mean a cheap car.
Ahh, I see. The Gambler 500 is an event with a price limit, where you buy a car for no more than $500, modify it for offroad use, then try to drive it 500 miles offroad. Many of the entries in the event have been very silly, such as old stretch limousines or road sports cars that are turned into offroad Monster Trucks, or economy sedans where the roof is sawed off to make it into a tiny pickup truck.
