How about apoligizing to the community and Lance for your comments? You could do that right now.

To think you were even CONSIDERING the Bravada, and at $700 p/mo to boot! Do you realize you can get a Boxster for $500 p/mo?????

All I gotta say is man, you're spoiled as hell. I don't care if I made $250,000/yr, if I had kids I'd die laughing if they asked me for a brand new car, especially a car that has a $700/month payment. Unless they were paying for it themselves, there's no way I'd even go for that. I don't think that a 15 year old kid needs a brand new car like that, especially if they're not paying for it. First of all, the kid will be spoiled and expect their parents to buy him/her another new car if they wreck it/get tired of it. Don't believe it? Then you obviously haven't spent too much time around kids like that, or you have the same spoiled mindset. Secondly, if you pay for your own car and work for it, you'll appreciate it more, and not be so prone to wreck it. (Which goes with the above).
Bottom line, get that silver spoon out of your mouth and join the real world. Also, an apology to Lance and the CEG would be nice as well.

Okay, I for one am tired of all you guys ripping the hell out this young kid. So, what if he is "loaded." How does this effect any of you guy's lives? You people really need to stop drinking the Hateraide. I am kinda of the position he is. My parents have helped me out ALOT, but I still know the value of working hard. This guy is only 15, so he is ALOT to learn. Let him experience it, but I guess he is learning something very important... No matter what you do you will always have haters.. :rolleyes: -Antonio

Helping your kid out and spoiling the crap out of him, especially when he has two cars, is WAY different. Everyone's going to rip on you until....well...you just go away. Berating Lance because you didn't have it your way gets you lifetime clowning. Deal with it. Truer words were never spoken. That's what he's done to deserve our "Hateraide". Also the fact that he's never owned up to it or apologized, as well. (And if he does, I can vouch that many may not believe the sincerity.)

Moonlight, I would have respected your "ripping Lance a new ass" if you really stuck to your words and NOT returned. Not that I agreed with you, but just on principle alone. But you stayed and kept posting, like it never happened. You have officially become the "CEG Whipping-Boy". Lance, can you change the name on his posts? That would be all too fun. A word of advice: Never rub it into a groups face that mommy buys a vehicle for you. People that work hard and earn their cars tend to get irritated. It is called "Human Nature". Maybe mommy should buy you a Mocking Bird...
Oh, and BTW... Lance is right about the Off Topic. While I enjoy it, it turns into a three ring circus and I lose sight of the reason that I am here... Oh, yeah.. My SVT.

Ok...I've had enough of this too! Some of you guys need to really lighten up on this kid. Remember, he is a teenager and does not have the ability to see things from our 20 something and higher perspectives. Yes...I wish I could have had a new car when I was a teenager, I never got one. Well, this kid can. Be happy for him!! As for ripping on his parents for buying their kid an expensive car....Why? You know nothing about this kid.....you know nothing about his parents....so how dare you judge him! Maybe his parents grew up poor and want their children to have the best things possible in life? Maybe not.......the point is.....you can't tell people you don't know how to raise their kid! My point here.....he is young.....he made a mistake.....now move on!  Sheesh!
