[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait, isn’t this normal? A rite of passage? I’m not talking about a new BMW (which happened often in my HS), but an old beater, a pick up, a used car w/ some miles on it...High school lots are filled w/ student cars so obviously it’s the norm.

I had the near-exclusive use of a car (my parents old car; they bought a newer one) but it was not "my" car.  It was in their name and they could revoke driving privileges on it.  Also, I had to keep my GPA high enough to get the good student discount on their car insurance or else I had to pay to insure it myself.  I think it's not unusual for high-school students to "get a car," but I think for most people that means they are allowed to use a family car.[/quote]

We have a third car and it is known as “the car ds drives”, not “ds’ car”even though he is the only one who drives it. It is 12 years old and was dh’s before he got a new car last summer. It’s perfectly fine for what he needs. [/quote]
