ALTO: Every Broke Ass Man's Fetish


It is the little things in life that matter. An Alto is one of those little things. Yes its matters to own an Alto. How did those mandarins who are given the mandate to design a car come up with an Alto? Suzuki (made Suzuki a brand name in "79) for once scored so low even though my main drive is not intended for the company as they just make for consumption by the ever car hungry men who will want to be seen arriving on 'fours.' In Luo they say 'Olo nono.'

The first time I heard that there is a car called Alto, I thought it was probably a Japanese machine from the ubiquitous Toyota or maybe the synonymous Nissan. I had not thought of an Alto from Suzuki. Who drives these Suzuki's though.

Alto is a bland, thin, poverty stricken and a malnourished car that can be mistaken for a gaunt figure struggling for notice on the road. Other than the fact that an Alto is cheap, the car is morbidly debilitating. Even a Mr. Bean car has finesse and chutzpah when on the road. It (Alto) reeks of subtle malevolence and sap cheekiness.

Anyone who plunders his shekels on the moty is nothing but a stingy hell of a man who does not care that he is hurting his ego and that of those he is socializing and associating with. What with the car having no status symbol, making you look like a hell of a first time car owner, and it making you look cheap and a famished being seeking to be seen in a contraption.

Ideally, nothing is wrong with owning this car. You are however a hell of a looser who will be entitled to nothing but chide. A butt of jokes you will become whether you like it or not. Never tell guys you are going to buy an Alto (even Yolz damsels will never respect you). Or never show friends that you are shipping in an Alto. Do it as covertly as possible. Even when you shipping it into the country, just tell friends to wait for a surprise as you will no longer be boarding mats or using route 11. The one (photo above) I decided to use is more stylish and looks like a worthy contrivance to put on road.

Indeed if you planning to buy this car, you need to be a bachelor (below 25 if you can afford it). If you are a family man, an Alto is a machine that even cause your child stress each time you go pick him with that car from school. Unless you take your child to a school where parents have no cars. Either way, other children even if their parents don't have cars will bully and psychologically affect your progeny because of the diminutive shape of an Alto. Why? An uncle of mine wanted to buy a probox (they called it a toolbox) and his boys out-rightly told him not do buy the go damn thing. Methinks a probox in comparison to Alto does better (My revulsion for a Probox is inimical). Such is the pride children have. In fact, the people who influence parents a lot to buy items are their children.

As a person who likes speed, Alto is a car that can never sate my enthusiasm in a car. I rank some of the Altos in the same league as Bajaj (sic). Why? The speedometer limit reads 140 kph . Unless you are over 50 and fear speed since you want to reach the age of 70, an Alto, ah ah. Even a fifty year old who buys this car is just a joker or a very broke ass buda. When you are on the road, you need to press the gas pedal and feel like the car is moving. Again if everyone is overtaking you, it means you are just inferior (worse of all a Vitz).  MWK are the only people who don't mind mediocrity since they accept what they are bought. Dude, unless you are saving for something better or you aim at disposing this thing to a MWK, as a macho man, I beseech you to dispose it off like yesterday.

This car cannot do off-road effectively in as much as it cheap and economical in fuel consumption. Its resale value is unknown as very few chaps want to buy it unless you are thinking of making it a taxi after purchase. I mind my pride and I would be indignant if a person gave me this thing of a car to test drive. This car is arguably meant for Europe and Asia where the roads are well carpeted and maintained and guys are heavily taxed in order to ensure their environments are clean.

Don't get me wrong though, am a car fanatic and when I saw an Alto, I felt cheated because I was thinking of something better. But as much as I have exposed my naivety and ire, I still stand by my words on this obnoxious thing that one can spend his money on because it consumes less on petrol. I am of the opine that, when you entertain mediocrity and measliness, this tenets will follow you in your life.

SITUONANE.
