Every kid at my old highschool has a wrangler.

Farthest they ever go off road is the shoulder.

When I was in high school we were too young (<18) too drive, except for the last few months of the final year.

I'm still at school, and this is the only picture I have of our car park:

Not many students have cars; the Defender belongs to a member of staff. There's no way a teenager in the UK could own a car like that. The Peugeot's mine.

The cars kids drove to my HS was insane. Brand new Audi's, Mercedes, and BMW's were there. And my god, probably 100 new Ford Escapes and Focus's combined. It was insane.

Here, it'd be all but impossible to get a young driver insured on a car like that, even if the parents were quite well-off. If it's got a large engine, you can't drive it.

The upside, of course, is that all new drivers in the UK start out in small, low-powered, nimble manual-transmission cars. They're not insulated from the road in big SUVs with lots of power and automatic gearboxes, and have to pay attention to everything that's going on around them. I think it forces us to become decent drivers.
