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.

How is he surprised at all?
AITA posts are like “Yeah so my one daughter I paid for her wedding and her first house, but my other daughter I fed her live spiders in the basement her whole life. Now she won’t talk to me. AITA?”
