Okay, but no. What kind of car should *I* buy?

plattsburgh is about 2 1/2 hours from me, Jim is 4.

Parts is parts, infi.

I would need more than a shitbox car to unshackle me, glatt. I look at it as not having to worry about unexpected breakdowns or waiting for the other shoe to fall. A new, new car is off the table but a newer used car is probably the best idea for me. I have way too much on my plate right now to add any kind of fixing up of cars to it. Also any type of car work is going to be done en plein air, not fun in the snow, rain, and -5 degrees.

I went to my product advisor dot com and did their questionnaire and got a list of likely suspects, only they just do 2014 cars. It gives me a starting point anyway. After school I'll talk to my bank and see what kind of loan I can get.

I've always liked this car, maybe I can hammer Jim down on the price.

Unless you have hot and cold running wallets, you're in the same boat as most people where they spend most of their efforts on food, shelter and reliable transportation,(big 3), for them and theirs.
To maintain all three at a level which affords additional activities, adventures, or hobbies, is getting rarer all the time... and generally limited to people who were established and entrenched before Wall Street killed hope.

These days, in order to have one of the big three comfortably secure, usually means skimping on the other two. But most people end up juggling all three, trying to keep everything in an acceptable balance. You may have to love the one you're with.

Hit eBay Motors, Feet. You can search by price range, and see what a certain amount of money can get you. That way you have a starting point for finding out just what you might want.
