    My plan all along was to give him my 4Runner. When it came down to it, I just couldn’t part with it.

    Understand that. I bought my 4R when he was 10, and I was sure I’d be tired of it well before he turned 16. And I was very wrong.

    I’m glad you like your runner! Teach your kid auto detailing. One of my favorite things to do when I was 16

    When you post this, you know people are going to give their thoughts.
    One of a few things are happening here.
    #1. Your kid is an amazing kid and you are just so proud of him.
    #2. You have more money than sense and your kid is a spoiled brat.
    OR... #3. It's #1 or#2 and you want to show off your money because you think people will like you and look up to you.


    Wonder which one the OP will pick? lol
