My son will turn 16 this spring and we have set aside some money in savings to buy him a vehicle. After browsing ads, FB markeplace etc, I came to conclusion that anything that would work (reasonable insurance) was absolute junk. No thanks.
So the wife and I considered just giving her vehicle to him. That is a '14 Jeep Compass. The up side is I've maintained this vehicle, and know it well. Of course the down side is I have to buy the wife something else.
She seems to have gotten the convertible Camaro thing out of her system now and says "nice but really impractical".
I won't have a off shore name brand and I'm not going to be disappointed in a Ford or GM simply because I won't buy one.
A nice car is her speed so that leaves a Chrysler 300. I've never driven one before but I've heard some good things in general.
Not buying new, looking for something a couple years old with less than 50K on it.
For the guys that know these cars tell me what you think.
Good idea or forget it ?
