Is there any way that you can perhaps explain that a 4x4 truck would not fit your current lifestyle/vehicle needs? It would help if you have another specific car you've picked out that you can show him the ad for, that is perfect for you in all these different ways, and just happens to be more than $2,000. Or tell him that you have had a bad experience in the past being a single woman stranded alone on the road at night, and that you will no longer risk having an unreliable vehicle in the future? Maybe tell him that you already had about that much ($2000) saved up, to prove that you're serious about not buying the cheap car the minute you could have afforded it. If he adds $2,000 to that "fund," you still will need more time to save up to your goal of $5,000, so he doesn't have to see you pony up your imaginary $2,000 right away.
