I've been thinking about dropping some more money into my shitty little Kia Sportage, but still think I'm going to hold off since I (hopefully) will be upgrading cars sooner rather than later.
My parents had expected me to wreck my first car by now (2 years and about 2 months of driving thus far; 0 tickets, 0 accidents; knock on wood).
Being 18 (almost 19), with the same car as the one I took with my permit test, my brothers had already gone through two cars by this time.
I guess my reward for good driving is the same ghetto car
