Teenage daughter changes Cuda plugs.

I would feel the same about letting my 14 year old if he ask to use my Cuda or Challenger when he is able to drive. I'm glad she has a interest as it would be great to see more of their generation show a interest in the Mopar hobby.

I think you should. I'm sixteen and I always drive my Challenger. I think my dad has drove it like 3 times since we finished it. I can't wait to start drag racing this summer.

No prom yet (she's just a freshman) but here's a picture of my daughter before and at her first Homecoming. As far as driving my Cuda, or my Challenger for that matter, I don't think she could reach the peddles. She's only 5'1 haha.

Sounds like your making up excuses 70challrtse, my wife is only 4'11'' and she drive the Chally and the R/R but she can't quite get the clutch fully engaged on the Charger  Your lil girl could drive the E-bods , not a problem

"my 21 year old stepson doesn't even know how to get to the quick lube shop to have his car serviced"


been there, done that one...



...anything that keeps the kids interested in doing things with the family....my son never had any interest in MOPARS at all....now, he is 28 years old and purchased a 440 SIX PAK Challenger this year....we talk MOPAR all the time now....
...hope your daughter enjoys the car hobby as she matures, it is a great hobby to be involved in

I cant wait to take my 'cuda to prom.  But i'm not risking it sitting in a parking lot, so im having my dad pick it up while im there.  Better safe then sorry.

You might be right about that, but she is the only one I have. I want her driving a car with abs, numerous air bags, stability control and GPS. And she is not getting a car on 16th birthday like all her friends. Lauren will get a car at the end of her soph. year if she has a good year in school. This is 7 months after she turns 16.No compromize - the fussing has already started.

  Just pulling on your "git go chain" , for sure the absolute number one concern is for their safty. I hear ya, I'd rather be looked at as a mean old dad and have my kids around (of course all mine are now having their own) than a cool dude and see one of my kids hurt, or even worse    Our love for them should come before our willingness to see them happy because of the car they drive.

I've got a 13 year old daughter. 13 going on 30 that is, LOL!! She first wanted a mustang which i told her might be do-able. I'd rather see her in a MOPAR, but buying a mustang wan't totally out of the budget. But NOW she says she wants a Ferarri!!  I told her to save her lunch money because I just didn't see a Ferrari in the cards!! She does like the '68 Barracuda and now really likes the hemi orange Challenger. She tells her mother she likes to ride with me because mom drive too slow & dad drives FAST. Thanks a lot, let's get dad in trouble!!    I think sh'ell be asking for the Challenger in a few years. it's growing on her. Mopars tend to do that!! Good luck with your teenagers!!

70, She looks like she'll be ahandfull...lol.
BTW, how many cars were made like yours? Reason I ask is I have a poster from the 80s I think of a butterscotch hemicuda. I've never seen another car pictured like that. I've had it since '86 when I got it with my first '71 Cuda I bought.
