Default who do you let drive your car?

Personally, my dad is the only person that ill let drive my car. If my bro/sis needed a car id have to say sorry. I know my cars not all that fast, but if its new to you it wouldnt be hard to accidentally have it swap ends.

What about you guys with the fairly modded stangs? If your selling it do you allow test drives with cash in hand? or what.

I had my car for 8 months, never let anyone but me even sit in the driver seat... My mom wanted to drive it.... I made the mistake to let her drive it... came back 100% ok and I was SO releaved... until later I find out she let my girlfriend at the time drive it! My girlfriend didn't even have her license! only a permit! Oh man! I was PISSED! lol so... no one ever gets to touch my car!

I let people I work with drive my car all the time. Parking at work is limited and instead of having to make a shuffle cars around so they can get theres out we just drive which ever one isn't blocked in. They let me drive theres if mine is blocked in.

No touchy, she doesn't get enough traction to let people get in and try it out.

My wife and my cousin so far. Most people don't wanna drive it. I don't care, it's just a car.
