I meant if they buy their kids a car, they pay for everything that goes with it (maintenance, gas, insurance etc) I assume you were a student then? Kasi if you are working na then you have the salary naman to pay for it than go through the nightmare of push starting a car for 1 to 2 months

i was a student once. i was an NSDB scholar for the longest time. NaSa Daddy ang Bayad.

they're so reliable. nothing much breaks down.
pag nasira (which doesn't happen often), dala talyer.
so yes, they don't build cars like they used to. they actually build 'em better now.

and batteries.
we used to make tipid on our dead batteries... replacing only the dead cells or rebuilding the entire battery, via the reliable car battery rebuilder mechanic. it saved us a couple of hundred bucks back then.
As expected, in response to Tesla’s entry into the Philippines market, Ford will be bringing in the...
