That's where the commuter vehicle comes in. A used echo or corolla can be had for super cheap & make a perfect vehicle to get 1 person to & from work.
This is what I was referring to when I said that Americans aren't ready to accept the concepts of a commuter car.
Now if only we could get some 1L engine vehicles over here in the states.

True, and my brother-n-law uses a 1996 Ford Escort with nearly 200K on it for his 40 mile (round trip) commute each day. Never do they take their kids in it.
A look around my work and you'd be amazed at how many people use suburbans and full size trucks for their 20+ mile commute.
They make tailpipe attachments that can wistle, they need some for these vehicles that sound like cash registers so they can hear their money going down the road
