Crown Victoria or Grand Marquis. You can’t say Grand Marquis without Grandma. big, reliable, inexpensive, dumb cars. Cheap to fix when they do break. One drawback is that tires are expensive just because of their size.

Buying a teenager a motor vehicle is risky business. The best choice is one he buys himself with his own earned money, including the staggering insurance cost. If you start now, you will be buying his cars for a long time to come.

But if you MUST engage in this folly, a 4-cyl pick-up truck is as good a choice as any…
