Is the gambler 500 dead now? (hexbear.net)

Seriously, I've spent like an hour searching and there appear to be absolutely no used cars in the US or Canada priced at or under $500. In fact, they're not even really close. I can only find a handful of cars under $1000, and they all seem to be parts cars that have major issues that are insurmountable for all but experienced mechanics who happen to have a spare engine laying around.

Am I just searching in the wrong places or what? Where have all the cheap-ass cars gone in this car-mandatory society?

At certain points during the pandemic used car prices were through the roof because new cars weren't getting shipped or whatever. Market never recovered of course.
