From a 33 Year Veteran as Fire/EMS,...There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WORSE than having to visit a parent with the "worst" news. With the "Privilege" (not a "right") of having a DL comes huge responsibilty.A little wrench time is always good for the feeling of ownership as well. Were sure you'll help her make a good choice. Lots of good comments here,...Her ride doesn't have to be fast to be cool,....How about a later model truck (not as fast) EFI with air bags.
