At least they owned up to it...ford would just issue a software update
Proposal should go with the offer to teach her basics that will help extend the life of the car.I thought about proposing: if you can get through 4 years of college with it, I'll give you $Xk dollars toward something new when you graduate. Or is that a dick move, just let her wail on it?
I mean the only thing I'd teacher would be to change the oil regularly, accelerate gently most of the time and stomp on it when you need to. Same with the brakes.Proposal should go with the offer to teach her basics that will help extend the life of the car.
Our daughter had the 250K+ mile minivan for college. She had a few little incidents that didn't require telling the insurance company (no other cars/people involved). What she did was research what type of car she wanted as a graduation present. Her first choice was a used or new Subaru Crosstrek (older cousin had one). When she finished a year early, her father opted to let her have the 2021 RAV4 Prime instead. He didn't get any argument from her. He's still holding onto the minivan.
The trick to teaching at times is to figure out the right questions to ask. Then listen carefully to the answers . . . or lack of answers.I mean the only thing I'd teacher would be to change the oil regularly, accelerate gently most of the time and stomp on it when you need to.

But it has to be her idea. if I propose it it'll never happen.
DefinitelyThat’s kinda funny
