So much for "Quality"

I was given my own car last July. GIVEN because there's possibly no way I could afford to buy my own car with my savings. It's not even enough to buy a new laptop. I was given an SUV before, a Ford escape, which is a great vehicle--- but I couldn't really call it my own. I was the primary user, but my brothers and sisters also use it. The whole family uses it. Then when I started residency, it was no longer my car because I never used it anymore. It was passed on to a new owner. Then I had to use it on one of our team outings during residency. I guess that was some sort of wake up call that I still need some form of transportation. Surprise, surprise! --- the next time I got to go home, a brand new Honda Civic was parked in our garage. And was name was on the papers. It was really mine! A car I could call my own.

Yeah it's cheaper than the Ford Escape, but it really looks great. Real slick. It can go faster, and chicks seem to dig this car more than the old one. LOL. I don't really want an expensive car. If I has a Mercedes, or say a Volvo, I wouldn't dare drive as fast as I do if i had an expensive car. i would be out of my mind trying to handle it with utmost care because I would probably go crazy if I see even a small scratch on it. Besides, I'm told that Honda is a good brand. High quality at a not so expensive price tag. Well worth your money, that's the common feedback from both reviewers and consumers. I just love blazing at top speed with such a slick car. Driving fast can be as relaxing as smoking a cigarette, or as soothing as a few shots of Tequila.

Then yesterday, the power window on the driver's side won't go up. It would go up halfway, then go down again. WTF?! it's not really completely busted, it still goes up all the way up when i pull the damn widow slightly just before it reaches the halfway point... and I know shit like this happens to every damn car with power windows... heck, this happened to that sturdy Escape when it was three years old. But I've only been using the Civic for 3 months! Three short months! And it's not like I haven't been taking care of it.

Geez, so much for QUALITY.
