How long is the life span for a car?Well, personally, based on my observation it usually last for 5 years, after that, you guys will started to have a headache. Hmm, if you guys say “no, not really, it is based on how the car is produced itself, what is their brand and etc”, surely, you makes a point there, Honda, Hyundai, BMW and many more, all have lead to their own revolutionary, which makes them difference, differ in their engine and also in the money itself. But, think twice, are you sure, these types of car really don’t have their life span? Think carefully.
This story is about my mom’s car,let just say, it’s already reached it limit, two bad experiences, how it’s really can cost you a life, time, and money. Well, i had my licence for almost 6 years and you can say that because i am not living with my mom, so i had limited usage of the car, very naive one. Don’t worry, after i finished up my study, i will drive.
It’s holiday, and my mom promise to pick me up at the airport, what happened was, i ended up waiting for almost like 2 hours or more. I choose worry instead of angry. Actually, my mom already arrived at the airport earlier than me, then, she parked her car somewhere around and wanted to fetch me up later, but unfortunately, as the time closer by, when she try to started her engine, her engine did not want to start. You guys know what was happened?, car battery runs off, and no matter what she do, she can not started it, lucky for my mom because she came with my brother. The solution was he called his friend, brought along another car in the middle of the night,*my flight a bit late * and had to do something like,what they called by using ‘jumper’,which i understood as recharging one car battery with another car battery, and it only useful for that moment. More precisely, at the end, my mom still had to change her car battery which cost you money.
Another amazing moment, there is someplace that we had to go, also in the middle of the night, and we had to drive along a very jammed road *the place is only open at night*unintentionally, my mom look upon the heat meter and, wow, shockingly it’s higher than usual. In the middle of busy road, your heat meter is higher than the safety limit, what would you do? Well, if you choose to continue your drive, and the meter get higher, eventually the impact was your car can blown up, and if you stop, people will get mad at you and you will had your panic disorder and the result was you end up having a great phobia in life. Well, just my guess, do not believe me ^_^. At that time, thinking of our life at the peak and with stress factor around, we figured out something, switch off the air-conditioner and the radio, and we drove very slowly until we can properly stop our car alongside the road, wait until the heat meter is on the safety border again. Well, it works, we reached our destination, and at the end, my mom still had to do some servicing with the car.Cost you life, money and time.
The end.
Enjoy your reading, morale of the story, takes good care of yourself and your car, and don’t forget to think about your car life span,because if you reached it, then you should think about the same experience. ngee ^_^
p/s- got another exam, wish me luck.
