I'm with your dad on this one. The fact that he has the money to buy you a car is irrelevant. The bottom line is that you want the best of both worlds, to have a car and go be social but also not have to work so you can focus on the school. Well sweetheart, life is often unfair and almost never cake-and-eat-it-too for the average person. Your dad is saying you have to choose. So choose. There are advantages and disadvantages to both. If you want to hash those out I'm willing to help. But I suspect you won't be.

We must have a lot of millenials on this website, because I do not understand the downvotes. I'm more impressed with the job candidate that got all Bs and worked, than I am with the candidate that did not work and filled his schedule with a bunch of extra curricular activity.
Ultimately, what your dad is trying to instill in you will be for your benefit. It may be that he's a tightwad, but that still does not take from the fact that it will benefit you in the long run.
