Probably yes on all points.
I can remember all the money I wasted when I was young on "$hitbox" cars. From there on it was no more pre-owned crap. I wanted to trash it myself, to my own specifications.
As for HiPoint pistols, ever see the Youtube video where two guys tried to destroy one. Finally had to actually thread a bolt into the muzzle and fire it before it failed. They may be ugly and cheap but most have to admit that "they go bang every time" and don't cost much.
They kind of fit in the category of the joke "Do you know what a Moped and an Ugly Woman have in common? --- Both can be a lot of fun but you wouldn't want your friends to catch you on either one".
Y'know, the vehicles I was most attached to and still miss were the shitboxes. The only car I ever bought new I dumped long before it was paid for and never think about it, but really miss the ol' Ranger it replaced. Now I just keep everything till it's paid off then never have to worry about missing anything.
Yes I'm familiar with that hipoint vid and there are quite a few others. I've tried pointing them out to fools who claim HPs are cheap crap that will blow up in your hand, but you know that line about fixing stupid...
I've been carrying my hp 9mm more and more lately. The Tanfoglio is just such a big heavy brick (which is funny over a hipoint), it needs a custom holster to really be comfortable while the lil c9 just disappears with an equally cheap fobus paddle. Still trying to decide which to bring to my lil Seattle excursion this Saturday.
