If you had limited budget what would you buy that isnt gonna break all day long...I want it to last about 6 months and a lot of miles. Driving round the states so will probably buy when i arrive in LA from the UK. Spend between 1000 - 3000. Any pick ups worth looking for?

i think its pretty much a craps shoot at that price range. just get a hyundai. i got an 00 elantra with 39k on it 2 years ago for 3000$...totalled it this year with 95k on it and insurance gave me the value of the car....$4000. the thing killed it in the snow too....a nice set of snow tires did the trick, 3 years in mammoth and the thing never got stuck once.

if you can afford fixing it (assuming that this isn't part of the budget) get an old volvo. It'll last forever.
