you should mentally & emotionally prepare yourself for him to refuse when you ask him to hold up his end of this bargain.

To be blunt, if you had a good relationship with your father and if he was a good/honourable parent to you, you wouldn't be in this subreddit trying to figure out how to GTFO of his house the day you turn 18.

I diagree with this because I couldn't wait to get out on my own and I had and still have a good relationsip with my father and that was 25 years ago. Every ones situation is diffrent. I would however, always plan for the worst case scenario.

Check out OP's posting history for extra reasons to why I believe OP's father will reneg on giving OP the car.
