What are Some Good, Recent, and Available Dumb Cars? (lemmy.ml)

I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. She's been my trusty steed for the last 14 years and is in good working order. I recognize she won't last forever, and if, god forbid (mostly for her) I get in an accident, I will need to get a new car. So what dumb cars do you drive, and what would you replace them with?

Gonna catch some flak for this, but a Ford Focus... Just get the manual transmission. That car will easily go 200k miles, and all the bad press about the automatic has pushed the price down. My friend has the manual version and it's about as bulletproof as you can get.
