- What is it with bad cars that cause people to buy them over and
- over? I've observed this phenomenon at work:
-
- "We've had five Cavaliers, and they've all had problems."
- "Why did you buy the third one?"
- "Huh?"
-
- "We've had four Renaults, and *all* of them have had brake problems."
- "Then why do you keep buying them?"
- "Well, they're good cars."
- "Huh? For what, suicide?"
- (In this case, the ladys' husband weighed about 300lb, and they
- were driving a LeCar, which might explain the braking problem.)
