I'd be the same way especially if I felt I needed a new vehicle.. I miss my impala honestly.
chevy cars always look nice, and I've never had any issues with them so I might go that route.
If I was in a bigger area I'd search through lemons and call it a day, but I don't think this place has much to offer in that department anyway.. Most of the nicer vehicles that people are selling are trucks, and suvs from what I've seen.
Good old Texas..
