I do live with my parents but I do not get any allowance, they sometimes throw down some money for gas but mostly spend their cash on my older brother, who used to have an STI and then totaled it...

We hire 15-17 year old students at my district so this seems legit. Though your parents have to be helping you. No 16 year old can hold a stable job for 4-5 years making a brand new car payment. Otherwise everyone would be rolln around in a brand new car.
The kids we hire at my district usually get fired after a couple months or only work 10-20hrs a week. Or only do it for 4 months then quit. Idk how your child labor laws work but if you were in Oregon you would be limited to min wage (under 18) and top out at 17hrs a week or 38hrs during summer brake. Keep at it kid. College + brand new car don't mix. That's why I chose to work for a living. At that point you have to say mommy and daddy pay for your car. if they are paying for your college. Cant say your doing it on your own unless you are 100% supporting yourself.
