Let him work his way into a rusty 240D. Pick one of your worst cars, he can fix
it up to driveable enough. When it craps out repeat. Slowly clean up Okie Acres
one heap at a time.

Oh I could come up with a car to sell him but I do not want to sell him another
one of my cars for him to tear up. He needs a Chevy or honda or something. I
sold him this e430 on a payment plan after he wrecked his first car I gave him.
I really should not have done that. A 430 is way more car than a kid needs.
They will get up and haul some serious ass.
