I'm with dealer 502. I have two teenage sons also. Since you've been making the payments, your folks will just make sure you've learned your lesson but let you keep the car you're paying for. And you'll continue to enjoy a luxury ride at a budget price!

going to add one thing about letting people drive your car, normally I do not, but then again most people i know cannot drive standard. I have one friend who I let drive may car, he has been my best friend since 3rd grade. I am always with him, but he has let me drive his 84 300 SD Mercedes, plus he got his grandfather to let me drive his Nissan 300Z by ourselves  , so I say it is a selective thing

I only let family or best friends borrow my car.
Also, I had a 1967 Chevy p/u in college (in the 80's), great for moving back and forth.

That did make no sense..
I said if you want a cheap reliable car get a Ford Tempo if you look around u can find a 92-94 for 1100 or less i got my 92 for 600 they might not be the fastest or nicest car out there but its very very reliable and if it breaks dirt cheap to fix........
