I guess I get the award for jerk Dad of the decade award.
I refuse to buy any of my boys a car or pay for their college. Oldest saved money from when he was 12 on and bought an 01 Jeep Cherokee then worked all through high school and college and paid cash for his education at Fayetteville with no debt, second son saved and bought himself a 2011 jeep Grand Cherokee and is doing the same through college at Fayetteville, third son saved and bought himself an 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 4th is saving now for his.
I buy your clothes, food, gas, and insurance, cell phone, utilities and provide a place to live end of discussion. Everything else is on your own. Get a job and earn it.

Mine (twins) are sharing a 2007 Tacoma. Stumbled on a family member selling it, and it has made a helluva first vehicle for them. Bought it at 200K miles, and if it survives them for a couple more years, it may be my retirement ride. It’s Toyota number 5 on the farm, and we haven’t killed one yet.

I wouldn't buy a car off of Fakebook.
I would get a Honda or Toyota.

Amazing trucks. I’ve got a ‘21 and hope to give it to him as a senior once he’s proven he can handle a nicer vehicle

You should consider the fact none of his friends will be able to drive it …and wreck it. Just saying

Looking back I can say that I was an extremely spoiled and entitled child to have the first car I did. I was blessed

Great cars. Started both my kids with 2006-2008. Only problem is when the starter goes out, you have to take the fcking intake off to get to it
