show her a copy of that Topgear where they crash that 911 over and over to see how solid that little car really is. Replace your rubber fuel hoses in a timely fashion and they don't catch on fire, I thought that was more a 944 thing.

For a subcompact, or whatever a 911 would be considered, it is pretty damn safe. I bet it will stop 50 yards shorter than that truck at freeway speed too, how is that for safety.

Put a new fuel pump in the truck, keep the car. The kid will thank you in about ten years, or whenever you teach them to drive
