CJ,
A "free" ride to school on your parents dime is really a blessing for you. Why do you think that you need a car at school. One consequence of having wheels is that it is tempting to go for a ride after some drinking. A DUI is not a very good way to start into adulthood. You could always store it until after you graduate and then do the clutch. Graduation gifts can sometimes be very generous. I am going to school sporadiacly, but I also have a mortgage, stay at home mom wife and two very young children. I wish that somebody would have kicked me in the ass to go to schjool and do well when I was single. I bought my car this year, and it still needs work. There are many important things we do, and a cool car is lower on the list. I would not be in too big a hurry to move out on my own if I were you. Things are not easy and job compitition is getting more intense with this economic downturn. Pick up a paper and read Dear Abbey today. There is a good letter that has some advice that I should think about following now, and I am 29. Good Luck.
