Let me explain a little something to you. It's called "opportunity cost". You know what that means? To simplify it, if you have 5 dollars, and spent it on milk, then that means you are not able to spend it on cookies.
You "paying" for your car was only made possible because you "lived at home and have no other bills". In the real world, that just doesn't happen. I think you're getting a taste of it now, yet you still choose to waste money by purchasing mods that don't add value, then trading or selling the car at a loss, etc etc....you spend your money foolishly (and still try to brag about it.... lol... that's the funniest part).
Other kids like you at their age were not too fortunate. And seeing you waste your money, errr sorry, your
parent's money on frivolous things like cars and car parts and mods is down right stupid. I won't stand here and tell you my life story, but I don't think you should either. You come across as brash, arrogant, and to be honest, a little uneducated. And you're getting these responses from fellow owners here because of how your posts illustrate who you are.

Still don't learn do you?
This is worthless. I don't think any amount of common sense can be knocked into you. Good luck in your chosen lifestyle.
This topic actually reminds me of a hat given to me by one of buddies, who happens to be a Marine, and proudly serving our country. It proudly states one of the Marine's motto's:
"Earned, never given."
