I made my offer. Gump or his own wallet. SWMBA is soft in the head
and will no doubt allow him to use a real car. I felt Gump was a
better education than just letting him drive.
Would learn proper car care. Built better than new cars, without the
safety crutches. Everybody needs to know how to drive stick. Gump is
too slow to get him into trouble with racing. Slow enough to allow
him time to think it through before executing stupid moves. No stereo
to distract him from driving. Not a Mommy and Daddy love me car he
would just have no respect for anyway. Not cool enough car to lead to
stupid stunts. And the back seat is bigger than a Geo's

There would be no payments, we do cash for cars. This entails a huge
hit to the stack under the mattress. It would increase the insurance
portion though. Another car with comprehensive would replace the
rolling turd that is Gump. Also additional cost of having dork boy
getting access to two nice cars. Cleaning up the sticky stuff from
the back seat. Leather and cloth are bad. MB-Tex=good

How much would she be spending on a new ride in payments? People
tend to never think of that.
I'm such a New Englander. Our conversation would end with "its my
dammed car and I'll spend on it what I please." which works well
considering I'm the primary breadwinner in our house.
Which reminds me I need to go finish installing the trim around the
new stereo in Dory. Don't tell my wife but the old one hadn't
actually failed, the plug had come off the blasted fader thing in
the console (again!). I was fooled because the PO had direct wired
the left front speaker leading me to believe the entire right
channel was dead.
I direct wired the other front speaker in process of figuring it out
which gives me 4 discrete channels. This unit supports USB playback
so 4 channels might be fun to play with.
