Why do you think my parents still let my brother drive?

[phenol]

If you're going to call me a douchebag asshole fuck because I have a nicer car than you, then get out. I can complain about what I want, there's no reason I can't complain just because I have better things than most people my age.

His first car was a used 2004 Ford Ranger. He completely fucking totaled it beyond recognition.
Second was a brand new 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i (I don't know why my mom does the things she does) and he completely ripped the side off, and I never saw the repair bill but I bet it was over $10,000. (side note, my mom got the absolute base besides the CVT, most people pay less than $18,000 for it. She paid $20,000 somehow. That $2000 could have been a nice speaker system and a moon roof... god dammit)

So last week he comes home with a dent that looks like iron man tried to fuck the muffler with a 5 foot dick, and missed. And he says that he didn't do it. Which is complete bullshit.

If you were my parents...
why
the
fuck
would
you
let
this
kid
drive
anymore?

If you don't like cars then don't keep reading. Just a little story. Mostly me bitching and I know most of you will call me an asshole simply because I have a car.

I have to take the car in (inheriting it in about a month) to get an ECU/TCU update that's supposed to improve throttle response and address some other issues. Those of you not familiar with Subarus, the ECU learns your driving and adjusts to it over a period of months (90% in the first 4-5 months probably, and very slowly keeps adjusting for years) so if you never redline it, it just reduces the rev limit and most likely acceleration. So I'm going to bring it in for the flash that I assume should reset it right when I get it so he can't come back and fuck it up and make it always be preparing for a crash lol. Now here's the problem: My mom is STILL going to let him have priority over it when he's home from college for breaks. So it's going to go full retard on the ECU again, and I doubt I'll have a car for 99% of my high school career. I just know somehow he is going to fuck something up and total it again.

Again, why in all fuck would you let him drive if he was your kid?

[lou lou]

LMFAO
if that were my kid I would kick the shit out of him!!

[phenol]

I understand getting him another car because he had PSEO classes and he's like one of the best students in the country. But I can't begin to comprehend why the fuck she'd even let him even sit in the car again as soon as school got out. Does anyone have a valid reason?

[garrettu]

Idk why he would be allowed to drive, his insureance is probably sky high though

[Cognizant]

Ah, the joys of siblings. That's why I take public transportation or my feet places. :)
I'm not sure.

Tell me how you really feel.

This is very entertaining to read, do you have any pictures of the mutilated Ranger? How old is your brother?

My mom probably has some somewhere, but she gets pissy when I ask her about anything. It looked like someone dropped a freight train on it.

[Abyssal Echo]

if he was my kid after the second wreck he'd be buying his own car and Ins. or he'd be walking. even walking Idk if anything would be safe around him.

[Loreley]

How old is your brother?

[Bluesman]

If he were my kid, he would never be driving my car again, and he would be paying all the repair bills as well.

Fucking christ, he just threw like 5 cotton towels in with the microfiber towels I had for the car in the wash. THE TOWELS WERE ALREADY CLEARLY WASHED. Washing cotton towels with microfiber completely fucks it up and turns it into a retarded dish rag. God dammit.

[noster420]

Because they love him or they need him to run errands for them

I kept on reading and waiting for the part where you would have something better than most people your age, but never found it. You only mentioned the Subaru Impreza, and unless you're 10 it's not uncommon for people to get a car around your age. And it's not even really your car if your brother has priority over it.

His driving won't mess up the ICU. Ultimately, when you step on the accelerator the car will go faster and when you step on the brake the car will slow down. There's nothing else to it. If you were OCD and just couldn't drive a car that's had it's ICU tainted by another driver you can purchase an ALDL cable to connect your laptop to your car (http://www.aldlcable.com/) and reset the ICU after each time he or another person drives the car.

So last week he comes home with a dent that looks like iron man tried to fuck the muffler with a 5 foot dick, and missed.
I'm glad you got a good simile in there.

shit happens, people crash, have accidents, damage their vehicles.. my brother has gone through a few cars in his day, he's been driving for 8 years now and he totaled his first car a few days after he got it.. he learned a lesson, got a new car which was totalled too though no fault of his own.. he then got a Mustang and it was a POS and Ford bought it back I think.. now he's rocking the 3-Series.. cars are cars.. drive em'

[Lost in the Echo]

LOL! Iron Man fucking the muffler with a 5 foot dick!
I agree with you though, he should not be able to drive for a while or at least be punished for as many times he has fucked up a vehicle.
