This is a WTF comment....
It all depends on how many funerals you have been to.
Some of the once that stick to my mind from the early seventies is that kid with the Hemi Cuda; it was a closet casket.
Or the one with the big block Corvette; he looked like he was sleeping.
The one that lived down the street, his father build his Camaro to blow away everything else in the northern kingdom, is still struggling to put his live and mind back together forty years later.

I was 15 when I got my raptor. I do appreciate it and respect it! Its actually really smart... They have really good crash test ratings! Really safe truck. I'm 18 now and started raptor custom embroidery. I'm glad I got it because I probably would have never gotten into another vehicle enough to start a business. Honestly

I guess I'm just jealous. My parents couldn't afford to buy me any kind of car. Now I live in a city where most the young people live off their parents wealth so I just see it as spoiling your child. But I don't know you or your son so who am I to judge.

It's absolutely none of my business what decisions other people choose to make about their kids. As for me, no matter how much money I accumulate, hell I could be a trillionaire, my kids, should I choose to have any, will work for what they have.... Just like I did even though my parents both had two retirements and were fairly well off. I will help them with stuff like an education, but otherwise they will learn through experience how to work. My generation has been ruined by the sense of entitlement created by my parents generation. People need to learn that they deserve nothing beyond the things they get out there and grind for.
