Thank you, Bai Bedo! It was my 18th birthday present that my father bought me. It was a surprise present, as I remember going with him to Vineland Mitsubishi Motors, a Mitsubishi dealership in Southern New Jersey.
I was in my senior year of high school.
My father told me that he wanted to check some truck out; I followed him, and went with him to the dealership.
Then the car salesman talked to him and said, "so is this your son, the lucky guy?"
I was amazed. My dad was smiling. "Yes, this is him."
Then my dad took me to the side and told me that that 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport was "YOURS".
I lit up and smiles and grinned. I could not believe it.
We drove it home. And I have had it ever since.
I used it in high school and used it throughout college. And am using it in medical school. I will probably keep this SUV forever; it is my first car; and it has sentimental value to me. It was my father's gift/ present to me.

I promised him that one day I would get him a Mercedes S-500 someday.
He corrected me, "Di ko ana, gusto ko Mercedes GL Series!"
hahahaha!
I love my DAD.
