General Chat Chat about all things Blazer (and related vehicles). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

You needed some where to rant about what? The fact that you have to wait for someone else to take your license away because you do not know how to drive? Damn... No responsibility or sensibility at all...

I hope you were not looking for any sympathy...

if i was your parents i would have taken the license after the first wreck and ticket. I also wouldn't give you another penny towards a car.
This is where parents go wrong. They pay for nice cars for there kids and then the kid doesn't treat it how it should be. If the kid pays for the car or part of it they are a lot more likely to be careful and treat it right.

hey man, get some responsibility. you gotta have respect for your cars
without transportation we would be nowhere
im 17 and my blazer was a hand me down from my dad
it had 100k on it and i treat it like new even though i got it for free
blazers arnt stock cars.
here in kentucky, we have to drive with out permit for 6 months after we turn
16 before we can even get our liscense
and we have to have 60 hours of driving time and take a 8 hour class before we get
our liscense.
my dad taught me to make do with whatcha got
so treat what ya got with care, cause you never know when your day is coming
keep drivin like that and your day will come sooner then you expect it too
i pay for insurance, gas, repairs, and work 40 hours a week.
thatll teach ya some responsibility.
talk to your dad, hell tell ya how hard it was back in the day
think your life sucks? my dad didnt have indoor plumbing till he was 10, he didnt have cable or color tv until he was 15, respect the luxuries of life you have now, others arnt so fortunate.
and hes 49 now. his parents gave him torn up clothes, and he had to buy whatever he needed. he even paid them rent to live there. he works hard for everything that he has and treats it with care.
