It depends. Much, if not all has to do with how you were raised. For a daily driver? Maybe if it had a slant with disc brakes or something. I drove a decent Mopar in High School, a super clean short bed truck. When I was 19, almost 20, I bought my D200 pickup, and my Challenger later that year (2006). I set some rules for myself I never intend on breaking. No one besides me or my Dad will ever drive my car. Not to my knowledge anyways. The manual brakes and steering are too much for most people to handle. It will never be driven anywhere high traffic, IE, downtown Minneapolis/St. Paul. It will rarely get driven after dusk, deer country up here. And the most important one. I will never EVER drink one drop of alcohol and drive either one.
EVER I had to pay to play. Nothing was spoon fed to me. I watch my expenses carefully, always allowing for gifts to church also. Helps keep my head straight. I also save anything and everything I can, I dont blow it once I get it.
Most kids these days have no idea what it's like to work for your $$. The get it handed to them. The 80's/90's were good to kids. The economy was great, parents started paying for more and more for their kids. Our generation has not seen any hard times. I dont think we'll know what to do if that ever happens someday.
Sorry, just a rant from someone who believes they were raised right.
