Helluva first car young man! Well done!
Respect your pop for helping to hook you up.
Obviously, you've done that because you made the post.

Enjoy in good health!

Thats a pretty nice first car. Pleas do not be like every other kid I see or hear about whose dad got them a nice car (Evo or STI comes to mind) and then they kill themselves by rapping it around a tree. And do not be a prick just because you are 16 and have a 30k car. Your dad trusts you or he would have never gotten you that. Just my 2 cents, because I see that too often.

I am a high school teacher in an upscale area, so I see it everyday and the students parking lot is nicer than the teachers. I have those students in my class and it really "grinds my gears" in the words of Peter Griffen.

Yeah I understand, I take it easy on the road and appreciate it greatly. I personally think I am much more mature then most kids my age, and I understand how dangerous it is out there. I'll be happy to just cruise around town.

Congrats on your new ride! Sweet...

Congrats to the new ride but be safe and remember that practice makes perfect.
