I once (Back int he 1980's) knew a couple who were struggling financially after the birth of their first kid, the bills for that, one losing a job, and having to move all in the same summer.
Their car had also recently died.
I bought a Ford Escort wagon from my boss for around $100 (She said it was twice what the dealer was willing to give her for it as a trade-in).
Over a week and a half, I replaced pads and rotors, bled the brakes, did an oil and filter change, put on WalMart tires, washed, waxed and vacuumed it out, and gave it to my friends.
The engine died about 2-1/2 years later, but it got them through a tough episode and only cost me around $400 or so to do.

@nickmalone3143 What an ignorant, and factually incorrect comment.
Inflation is the result of numerous influences, from weather, to war, to greed, to monetary policy, to laws, to international trade policies, all the way down to road and rail conditions and the wages and motivations of rank-and-file workers in the supply chain.
A single US President has more influence than you or I, but nowhere near the influence of a brush fire, irregular rainfall, or a transport strike.
