Brand New Car...
Hello everyone,
got this via another board...
or a hand me down for a new 16-yr old driver.
What option are you going with?
Also, will you be paying for all of it or will they have to chip in?
Just Me,
MrAkeet

I think even if you are in a good place money wise, that NO 16yr old should get a brand new car....doesn't have to be 20yrs old but should be reliable
and run.....I think it depends on the parents if they want to buy it for the child...but I believe the child should be responsible for routine
maintenance and gas if parents are footing the bill or buying it and insurance

you know i thought about this and you know if you buy a lemon that is gonna be trouble, so if going used best have a good waranty, and that will still
cost you. on the condition of good grades in school, and on the condition of a strict curfew, and limits on HOW many friends are with them in the
ride i would consider a new car. I know how i felt when i had a old car and all my friends had brand new ones. plus the YOU ruin it you pay for it
would also be something.
my kids will have to have a summer jobs preferably plus activities school wise during summer so they would have to put down some money on everything
they have, that means car, clothes, etc.
