I would just love to have him drive a M1A1 Abrams, about as safe as you can get.
It's more than just him having a car, I want him to take an interest in them. He is a very shy and reserved kid. He has a few kids he talks to, has just one that could be considered a good friend. Unfortunately this one is in a different school. He is not super smart, he has to work to keep his grades up, for someone that does not like school he is doing well. He has all his high school requirements done, only takes the honors classes and is starting college a year early. He could have more electives or open periods, but chooses more classes, he says he needs to know this stuff. I wouldn't say he is a geek or nerd, just very practical with good common sense. He likes wood working, has been a big help to me with all the rebuilding of my shop, horse stalls, land clearing, fire wood etc. Throw discus and javelin at school, been taking lessons and playing the eletcric guitar for 3 years.
Anyway, I always thought the kids should buy their own car. I'm very proud of him and think he deserves a little reward and he will work off some of the purchase price.
