Context: growing up my dad has sports cars, and I was never allowed to drive them, even once I got my license. My older brother however could drive whatever car he wanted whenever he pleased.

Im in my mid 20s now, and I am still forbidden from driving any of his cars. Recently I got my dream car, 1969 dodge charger RT. I’ve been saving up for a decade for this car, and sacrificed a lot to get this car, its even a manual.

Well the other day when I was showing my parents my dad wanted to take it out for a joy ride, I told him no. When he asked why I basically told him “you never let me enjoy your cars why should I let you enjoy mine?”. I did let them ride in it with my mom driving, but my mom always let me drive her truck whenever. I feel kinda like an asshole for not letting him drive it but I also feel it’s fair since he never let me enjoy his. I probanly have a chip on my shoulder too since its my dream car and its insane to see a decade of work come together for it.

AITA for not letting my dad drive it?

Edit for info: I am male, but I’m the youngest of my siblings. The brother mentioned here is the first born, who can do no wrong.
