I find my position on this subject to be sympathetic. I imbue personality into personal possessions, especially the cars and trucks I have owned, and after a time, I view them as more than just a mode of transportation. This video was targeted at sympathetic consumers. The automobile holds a special place in the hearts of Americas, it represents our freedom, and is often an outward expression of how we view ourselves.…
While my previous car was not a terrible car, I had lacked a sense of ownership in it due to it being handed to me. Purchasing my very own car that I decided on, it gave me pride in what I was driving. I invested thousands into it fine-tuning and modifying it in any way that I desired. I learned many useful insights about automobiles, as well as having fun in the process. As the rules were for my first car, I had to come up with the money for the gas and insurance as well. Working harder and more frequently, I was able to afford and maintain the financial responsibilities required to have my…

Americans love owning cars and driving cars because they don’t have to wait for buses, and trains. In today’s society there are many ways to get around but a car is more reliable than riding public transportation or walking.

Cars are reliable because you don’t have to wait for the car to come get you.…

Immediately, when I turned sixteen I woke up in the morning and saw a pair of shinny silver keys sitting on my desk. I jumped up with excitement and rushed out the door wearing only my boxers, with the keys dangling in my hand. There it was: my brand new GMC Envoy, dark hunter green with a wax that could blind you. I stared at the car with excitement and admiration; it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, and it was mine. I took it for a test drive around the block and opened it up on the highway only three blocks from my house. It had a V8 under the hood, black leather seats, a Bose sound system and enough horsepower to tow anything I desired. After my first test drive around the neighborhood, I picked up the phone and called my friends. I couldn't wait to show off my new car. With a quick thank you and a hug for my parents, I sprinted out the door. Hearing a faint be careful from my mom in the background, I slammed the front door and raced to my car.…

Prompt 3: Through comparing and contrasting my skills, I’ve come to the conclusion that my greatest one is fighting. Along with my ability to fight came a skill set of determination, competitiveness, and memorization. Although my skill is not academic, it gives me qualities that can help me in the classroom. I’ve developed a strong memory and a passion for success.This skill has honestly helped me better my life. I started boxing when I was 14 years old as an overweight kid who was struggling with self-confidence. Boxing was that safe haven for me allowing me to lose the weight and gain skills that set me apart from others. From there I branched off getting into kickboxing, Muay Thai, Jiu-Jitsu, and wrestling. The mixed martial arts have really become a part of me as a person so I will always be participating in at least one subfield of MMA. Currently I am wrestling for my high school and keeping up with my boxing. The boxing I’m involved in is less likely to get me anywhere compared to wrestling. If I place in the top three at coast this year I will qualify for state and that will greatly aid me in the future. I want to pursue a college degree so I can better my future while also fighting on the side because you never know what can happen. I do love fighting, but jumping straight into only fighting and no schooling is irrational. Therefore college is for me.…

Every college student knows the importance of owning a reliable car. A car that can fulfill students' transportation needs without draining their bank accounts. I, myself a student, have owned a ninety three Mazda MPV. Purchasing this car was the biggest mistake of my life. It broke down almost every week. I remember once when the engine overheated due to a leaking radiator. The car suddenly stopped in the middle of the road; it was very frustrating. I had to push the car back home! I have owned this car for a year. During this year, I ended up spending 3,000 dollars on repairs, 500 dollars more than what I have paid for it. I eventually ended up selling it for 1500 dollars. Buying my second car took me a long time. I did not want to make another mistake. I took my time to do some research. I was looking for an affordable, safe, economical, and most importantly reliable car. I decided to buy a Honda Civic. I am very happy with this car. Having had a terrible experience with my first car, I do not want a low budgeted student like me to go what I went through. Every student should own a Honda Civic.…
I have been faced with many financial decisions in my life. One important decision that I have been faced with, and I have been faced with it more than once, is purchasing a new car. Throughout my life, I have had very bad luck with vehicles. It seems like every year I have to buy a new car because they always break down on me and I never have enough money to fix them. This past year I have finally saved enough money to purchase another one, but this time I feel as though I have enough money to buy one that will last me longer than a year.…

80 percent of Americans feel that their car is very important to their everyday life (Anonymous, 2007). They prove this in their unwillingness to change their driving habits even when gas prices increase and by the fact that 36 percent of American households spend more than $200 a month on gasoline for their vehicles. The American people are dependent on their personal transportation and find the convenience of personal transportation more important than most other things in their household budget. The student is not much different from the national averages and this article will explain the student’s purchasing decisions based on the assumption that the price of gas has increased 100% during one difficult summer.…
