The good thing about this story is that he knows the "value" of money. He knows how much the car cost..and how hard it was to get the cash to buy it...so he will not take it for granted.
I ran into this guy the other night who was given a 2000 Lightning for his 18th birthday...
and although he's my boy and all and I like him a lot...there is a guy on my home board with a 2000 WS6 Trans Am who is 18 also and it was given to him and is maintained (insurance and payments) by his parents.
I just think that if you have to work for it...you will enjoy it that much more.
Congrats on your new ride man.
Mike
