What are the auspicious sayings for buying a car?

[VonMaria]

Steering wheel heavy and round, safety rules kept in mind, abstain from alcohol, lust, and anger, never play with fatigue driving, safety as solid as a mountain, happiness connects day, month, and year. Below is an introduction to considerations when buying a car: 1. Choosing a brand: For most people, selecting a suitable brand is crucial. For example, some prefer Japanese cars, others German cars, domestic cars, or even niche Korean and French cars. Each car series has its unique highlights, and it's essential to find the brand that suits you best. 2. Selecting a model: Models can be categorized into sedans, SUVs, MPVs, crossover vehicles, hatchbacks, etc. Choose the model that best fits your needs and preferences. For instance, a compact and agile hatchback may be ideal for personal commuting, while families might opt for spacious SUVs, and families with two children could consider MPVs, the quintessential dad cars. 3. Determining the price range: Cars are consumables, so it's important to choose a model within your financial means when selecting a car. Additionally, purchasing a car often involves paying purchase tax, vehicle and vessel tax, insurance, registration fees, etc. Therefore, it's crucial to consider the car's on-the-road price to avoid budget shortfalls.

As a veteran driver with over 20 years of experience, I always say 'New car on the road, smooth sailing all the way!' when buying a car. When choosing a car, touch the steering wheel more and chant 'Steady and stable.' On the day of picking up the car, remember to tie a red cloth strip on the wheels, called 'Wheels turn, wealth comes.' A few days ago, I helped a young neighbor pick up his new energy vehicle and taught him to say 'Fully charged, long-lasting range' by the charging pile. Actually, whether it's a fuel car or an electric car, the most important thing is to check tire pressure and engine oil. Auspicious words are just for good luck, but safe driving is the most effective talisman.

Last week, accompanying my best friend to pick up her new car was quite lively. The sales guy taught us to say 'A good steed ensures safety,' and had us take photos of the car's front while shouting 'Good luck ahead.' Nowadays, young people buying electric cars like Teslas have a trend of chanting 'Full battery, bright future like electricity' while charging. It's recommended to hang a safety charm on the rearview mirror on the day of pickup. In Fujian, we also stick a 'Smooth' character sticker on the accelerator pedal. However, my friend almost forgot to check the tire pressure monitoring system. While these auspicious customs are fun, the most practical thing is to verify the maintenance manual and emergency toolkit before taking delivery.

Picking up a new car comes with many traditions: say 'Open the door for great fortune' when opening the car door, and chant 'Long-lasting engine' when starting it. Remember to place two oranges in the glove compartment for the symbolism of 'a bright future,' while friends in the north like to sprinkle grains on the windshield to signify 'abundant harvests.' But rather than focusing on auspicious phrases, it's more practical to bring a tire pressure gauge to check the readings and inspect if the oil dipstick is clear. When I picked up my new car, I noticed the coolant was low—topping it up promptly was far more beneficial than any lucky saying.

A veteran at the 4S store taught me the whole set of auspicious phrases: say "strong bones and tendons" during the car inspection, and chant "wealth rolling in" when making the payment. Nowadays, new energy vehicle owners have innovated the pickup ceremony, placing an apple next to the charging pile to symbolize "safe and fast charging." What truly matters is writing the promised freebies in the contract—I learned the hard way when a promised maintenance package almost became invalid because it wasn’t stamped. After picking up the car, first familiarize yourself with the ESP switch location and the triangle warning sign storage—these preparations are a hundred times more practical than chanting lucky words.

My father-in-law kept muttering 'as steady as Mount Tai' when he picked up his car, while I jokingly said 'worry-free smart driving' on the day I got my XPeng. Local customs are truly fascinating: friends from Guangdong love sticking 'safe travels' on their wheel rims, while Sichuan folks habitually paste red paper on their fuel tank caps. It's advisable to install a maintenance app on your phone before pickup to photograph the odometer, and pay special attention to checking if the spare tire well is dry—there are rumors of buyers unknowingly getting flood-damaged cars. In reality, saying auspicious phrases is less important than thoroughly reviewing the vehicle registration documents. During the temporary license period, it's especially crucial to avoid modifications—safety and legality are the truest forms of good fortune.
