no need to call it a bitch, bitch. LOL!!!!

 

sure i have a car but i have to pay more for premium gas for lexus but thats my fathers car. it is avg@22mpg in city but i dont know about highway because i barely drive it. i drove it today because my dad took the dodge to my friend who is a mechanic and he is going to fix it up like a new one because it has lots of problems enough already. it doesnt have oil, steering problem, clean the engines and so on for free......

 

well, then trade it in for a smaller car if you really need to. if you rerally need the truck for something and are willing to sacrifice $$ for gas, keep it. if not, trade it in.

 

IMO a truck like "yours" is too nice for a 17 year old anyway...not to mention it sounds like your parents are the ones paying the bills on it. If you really want to keep it try taking the load off of your parents...get some more hours at your part-time job or get a second part-time job in order to do so.

 

we have finally hit the point of cocaine being cheaper than a tank of gas. God bless america!!!!!!!!!

 

Hey I feel for the kids these days. Back when I got my first car, I used to fill'er up with premium for .90 a gallon. I couldn't imagine having to pay what I do now, with what I was making at my job back then, and I was working around 30 - 35 hours a week back then.

I will agree that my child will pay for their first car, my parents made me do it, and I still think I'm a better driver today b/c I did. You respect things a little more if you had to actually earn the money to pay for it. But when the time comes, chances are I'll be helping them out on the gas, so they can at least have a life, and not have to bust their *** just to put their whole paycheck in their tank...

 

my dad pay the insurance and i pay gas, oil, and for everything on dodge.
