This kid is a turd and he really doesn't deserve a car. But the parents suck too. What a shitty effort on their part. A $200 truck, gee thanks for nothing.

Ok, first vid with the remote/ass thing was real. Brother is guilty of exploiting, family in turmoil, decide to 'stage' other similar videos to play it off as money making scheme.
Mom's acting is forced, windows in S10 remain intact, and he didn't take the bat to the Hummer or his ass.
I predict in the next video he goes after lawn furniture or a telephone.
That is one seriously spoiled brat. His parents should be deeply, deeply ashamed and brace themselves for a lifetime of bailing his spoiled ass out.
Speaking of ass, I saw the other video and you know, I've been really pissed off/beside myself in my youth and I have certainly smacked myself upside the head; and punched a wall; and thrown things. But I was never so mad that I ever had the vaguest possible impulse to stick a remote control up my butt.
I look forward to reading "FAMILY OF 3 MURDERED BY DERANGED SON."
If the video's real, the kid needs to get his ass beat and the dad needs to man up and do it. The S-10 should be given to a charity donation outfit and the ungrateful little bastard can walk to his new job until he saves enough paychecks to buy his own damned car.
That being said, there's definitely something about the video that ain't passing the sniff test.

@Mike the Dog: Is it the remote that he put in his ass in the second video? I don't know why you'd want to sniff test that, but hey, I'm not here to judge.

That $200 truck is about $200 more than he deserves. What the hell ever happened to being 16 and having a vehicle with 4 wheels that runs? Hell, when I was 16 I had a Fiero... and I was happy with it (until it snowed).
My dad would have got me the beater and said.. yea it looks like crap now.. your gonna get a job.. then we're gonna swap in a 350, some headers, some 4:11's out back.. and some big tires.. your gonna sand that body down and then we'll take it up to your uncles to get painted. There's a couple of cans of degreaser in the back.. go find the engine.. i know it's in there somewhere.
True, I'd probably react to that truck with his first line like "Damn, that's a piece of shit". But, then I would say with a completely straight face and a tear in my eye, "I love it" which would be the most completely true statement ever, because what true Jalop could ever turn down a truck like that.
@Z71: Yeah, you gotta look at events in your life as opportunities. This kid could have the coolest ride in school- flat black, steelies, moon hubcaps and an "I'm the type of guy your mother warned you about" bumper sticker.
Either that, or a solid basis for a LeMons contender.
stupid kid.. I hate stupid kids parents these days..
Hell if my dad gave me that truck i'd hoon that bitch like no other.. your not gonna hurt it.. the girls might not like it too much but then again, they could get out and walk.
Dad needs to take that bat to the kid.
Spare the rod, spoil the child. (spoil.. to make rotten)
@WheatKing: You know what I got for my 16th birthday? A lecture on how I wouldn't get my drivers license until I was 17. I didn't buy my first car until I was 19, and it was a $500 20-year-old Suburban, that looked worse than this.
I hate kids.

That truck is a little better than my first reliable vehicle, a 1972 Plumbing truck.
It's behind the Exploder in this pic:
Just what you can see in this photo shows how epic that old beast was. Especially the fact I drove that monster to highschool everyday.
