or make him co-owner?

i'm not thinking of checking out anytime soon; but i just turned 50, and have high blood pressure.
i'd like to be sure that my kid gets the car. i just don't want to tell him.
If you transfer the car to your son's name, you can't keep it secret. He would have to be involved in buying the new license plates, insurance, etc.

As mentioned, an estate planner would be a good idea.
