Best Used Cars Under $8,000
August 4, 2016
The average new car now sells for nearly $34,000, which is out-of-reach for many. However, if you're looking for a reliable vehicle and willing to forgo the latest tech and convenience options, you're in luck.
This week, KBB released a list of the most reliable used cars under $8,000. The models on the list are 2006 to 2010 models, with the top pick being the 2006 Toyota Avalon. Check out the full list below.
