    it's really quite simple. low-end means bottom of the barrel, the absolute worst. high-end means just that. there's nothing higher than the high end, right?

    lately i've been reading a lot of gibberish like "higher-end". WTF? then there's "highest end"! like there's something that exists beyond the end

    but of course this one takes the cake: "mid-end"! i just can't visualize it. it's in the ends but somehow in the middle??? crazy

    higher end means, anything above low end.
    highest end is more popularly known as TOTL. top of the line.
    mid-end is a misnomer. there ain't no such thing. how can the middle have an end? it's landlocked between low end and high end. but we all know what they mean.
    heh heh.

    Speaking of bare models, I was really surprised that the Innova J (before the current model) had manual windows and side mirror (I considered an Innova before ) It reminded me of cars in the 70s. Are power windows that expensive

    What are samples of low end, high end and mid end cars

    It's just semantics. Not the best choice for a word to mean mid-range, but everybody gets the meaning anyway. Andaming problema sa mundo, pwede na nating palampasin yan.

    When people started including chaka and chorva in their language, nobody gave a damn.
