Dad's a car nut in a family that doesn't care about cars that much?

If they are even slightly dirty he washes them and if he doesn't have time he like flips out and makes me do it, if one of us parks slightly the "wrong way" he will go out and re park them and lecture us. I'm 18 and as my first car he bought me this brand new Honda (l asked for a beater or just the option to use the two we already have) but he got me a brand new one that I don't like driving because i'm afraid i'm gonna chip the paint or something. I sorta can understand where he's coming from since I love computers (spent 4,000 on one) and he thinks they are a waist of time but it's still annoying af having to deal with this.

It's waste.

That's really interesting. But you forgot to ask a question, genius.

You've told us a story but what is your question?

  • Do high school girls care if a drive this car? So I drive this Honda Pilot 2008 and is all black. I was wondering if a girl would turn me down because I drive a Pilot. Here's a pick to see what it looks like. Thanks for the help everyone. .html? Sort=3&o=0
  • Are me and my family paying too much for auto insurance? Our total every 6 months is $2,055. I'm 20 years old and drive a 2015 Silverado LTZ V8 crew cab truck and my mom drives a honda pilot 2015. We're paying about $343 a month on car insurance is that too high for a 20 year old and a 46 year old?
  • I pissed my dad off really bad should I just sell the car? When I was 3 I got ran over sued the insurance and got a 34k settlement that I get when I turn 21 I turned 21 a month ago got the money and went out and bought a green 1968 Pontiac Firebird with a swapped 428 automatic for 12k it's a bad ride but my dad is so pissed I didn't get a Nissan Altima or a Honda or something practical should I just sell it?
  • How do i convince my dad that the 2013 Honda Fit can handle a 400-km roadtrip without a problem? He keeps insisting that pickup trucks are better for roadtrips just because they have bigger engine and that the Honda Fit engine will overheat well my car hasn't shown any sign of possible engine failures Well I say that subcompact cars are better for roadtrips because they are more fuel efficient…
