The truck doesn't have to get it's roots done every week. The truck doesn't have "that time of month". If you want to go somewhere you don't have to talk the truck into it, just steer and go. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 687 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 687 | The Truck doesn't have to gets its nails done twice a month either.

My truck never smiles and gives me a hug when I arrive.
My truck has never offered me a cold beer.
My truck has never made my bed. In fact my truck has never been in my bed either.
I don't want to give up my truck(s) but I can't imagine life without my wife.

Well, probably not unless it was the Corvette! Her only complaint is: When are you going to get this one or that one fixed up so I can drive it! She's great! And I'm saying that even though she never looks at the Bolt (don't like computers)! :p

Present wife watched me hospitalize a 26 year old after he grabbed her butt as I led her off the dance floor. I think that's when she fell in love with me.

She helps load them to bring them home, wanders the swap meets for hours with me and goes to all of the car shows with me. She is 5'7", 125lbs., jogs 5-10 miles a day, has a beautiful face and smile and a great sense of humor. From the sound of others, I've hit the jack pot (and I did!).
Good luck to the rest of you,
