Are anyone else’s parents more ABSURD than mine?

When I first bought my car at age 16, my dad paid for it in full so I wouldn’t have to take out a loan.

He put the car title in his name, and we made a verbal agreement that I would make payments to him monthly, until the car was paid off. Then the car would be mine.

Over a year a ago is when I finally made the last payment to him. The car should have been rightfully mine, but the title stayed in his name.

Now that my car has started to run badly, and the fact that Ryan and I, since we moved in together, have gone down to driving only his car, I want to sell mine for as much as I can get out of it.

This car title is the last thing that my dad has over me. Once I sell the car, he has nothing else he can control in my life. He, and my mom, have turned this into a battle in where it’s looking like I am going to have to take them to court just to get the car title in my name.
