Shiiitttt... what to tell them... what to tell them???

How close of a relative??? Will they reimburse you if something breaks down with the car???

If not... then maybe you could tell them that you would really like to but you just can't take the chance. You are afraid that the car isn't all that road worthy, needs inspected soon and that a long trip without a check on brakes, suspension and fluids is something you are concerned about. You would feel terrible if something happened or someone got hurt because your car malfunctioned???
hmm some good ideas - that would probably work too! lol I loaned my car out a few times before, and the last time I did (not to them, it was a different in-law) I got the car back with barely enough gas to coast to the gas station. Ever since then I have been leary about lending it out.
