So you make $100-220/wk as a burger flipper. -- That might qualify you for a $4,000 car if anything at all.
If your current ride isn't literally on it's last legs. Keep your car. Be independent and stop sponging off your parents, Your father is completely in the right here.

i was trying to say that right there. my father used to say live within your means. hes a good man that man lol.

I don't flip burgers. Lemme clear that up. I've been working in professional food service for almost 4 years now. I'm an actual assistant chef like you see at a restaurant.

Independence is different. I always thought your parents were supposed to be there for you? I am good on paying back. That's no problem. It's just that I wouldn't be able to get an amount like that on my name. Even though once I turn 18 I will be making 1200-1400 a month.

My parents did help me with my first car, $500 a 1984 Chevy Tahoe S10. After I siezed up the engine I got the grand prix, my mother did co-sign on it but I had to pay every payment. She never once helped me even when it was either eat or make the payment. I never missed a payment on that in the three years I paid for it. But now that I'm living with my fiancee and going to school full time i'm starting to struggle, between trying to pay for bills/school/gas and maintenance on the car I'm stretched thin, plus she's in the process of finding a new job so I'm the only income..... very difficult at 8/hr. Not sleeping a whole lot, but hey, builds character.

I'm sorry about that. but I totally get the whole character bit. I understand that.
