[slapz]

Eh baka naman boss di ka lang satisfied dun sa binili mong second car.

Tawag dyan, SC.

pwede, pero sa SC ata, walang mapanlinlang na situations, SC's don't even decide for themselves.

Very valid points.

Anyone here who already have a car, then decided to get a second car, and regret it?

The thing with life is when a particular situation made you decide, but then again, mapanlinlang lang pala yung situation na yun. Di naman pala talaga kailangan.

And then there's tsikot, lagi kang nakakakita ng "temptations"... ahaha!

If you have the cash flow to support the second car ( hindi lang ipon money), go for it... I have three cars in the garage and we just make sure theyre properly maintained so as not to become repair pits either. One is a year old, another is 6 years old, and the last is 20 years old. However remember that its never an "investment". I was tempted to buy a project car some months ago (LSB showed me a pretty nice 2 door 123 Benz) but decided to use the extra funds to buy a lot instead.

Sleep over it and dont decide immediately. Take a look at some cars, and sleep over it even more. Then you decide.

Ok naman yung kinuha ko car, happy with the performance. Hindi lang ako happy kasi parang Sayang since now minsan ko na lang gamitin yung old car.

Cars as investment, unless that car is a collector's item or something...
I don't even treat my investments as "investments", investments are also expenses.

Yep, no problem with the Cash Flow, just that, you know, picking the brains of others, before I jump into it. Para at least mabawasan yung risk na pagsisihan bandang huli.

If I can afford I would.

Hindi naman ako maluwag but I keep a second car. One is a pickup truck for hauling and general purpose.
Pag hindi ka sanay mag commute at nasiraan ka ng sasakyan. Parang kalbaryo rin.

One is bit comfortable pero di naman pwedeng panghakot.

Had a Kia Pride, sold it, kasi feeling ko, madami ng magsusulputang papalitan, Thinking now that I should have just kept it. But oh well.

Do you think an Alto/Eon type of a car would be a good second car, as in everything is compromised, or kuha parin ng mas useful?

IMO, it's a good car kung based ka sa Manila, goes through EDSA/C5 everyday and you want a fuel-efficient car, at ikaw lang mostly mag-isa nagmamaneho to and from work. Pero since based ka naman sa Pampanga, marami pa namang ibang choices dyan unless gusto mo talaga yung Eon/Alto type of car then go. Pwede ring toy car yan.
