Bikes I would like to get.
I would like able to good not great bike for between $900 - $1200 (really 650-850 that is unrealistic) to get a Gravel to All Terrain bike. Is this a possibility?

Check out the Poseidon Bikes X and Redwood, but also others have stuff at that price point. Kona Rove has a model in that range too. Lots of awesome used stuff too in that range.

State Bicycle 4130 - $899
Steel frame and fork with State-labeled components - probably weighs about 30 lbs. - fairly upright geometry - eyelets for fenders and racks - 650b or 700c wheels - good all-around bike
Online reviews are available.

Giant Revolt Aluminum is in your price range, and it is a great value. Frame is excellent for an aluminum frame and components are the best you can do at that price range. Dealers still have a few around. Just upgrade the tires as soon as you can afford to as that is the one component that is most lacking. The company is also the world's largest manufacturer so has great economies of scale to keep costs low and they rae excellent for warraty work if needed. The dealer network is extensive and if you need a new derailleur hanger you can just ask any dealer. That has been a huge drawback of bikes like the Poseidon if you need parts or warranty work.
Used gravel bikes often sell within hours of listing if they are in good shape and reasonably priced.
