Also, mechnical suggestions to check when purchasing: brakes, muffler, transmission, head gaskets, tie-rods, etc. If we find a car will be taking to a mechanic for pre-check before making purchase.
Thoughts on car brands, year models to avoid etc ?
Thanks!

Buy a 4cyl Toyota Camry with under 100,000 miles, not a 6cyl.
They run forever and are great on gas.
