girlfriend call my truck a piece of...

Post by sacramento_ford »

well hey guys. i finally got my truck back, down to getting reg tags but hey, shes running and has new brakes.
my girlfriend helped with the bill since im not working.im trying to pay her back, i spent the day waxing truck, girlfriend needed a ride to pick
up her car from shop, on the way she says, blah blah, i spent 1,000 on this piece of %^& look the seats are ripped,
windows wont roll up, i was thinking hey their fine for now. my emotions were a mix of ted bundy and Ralph kramden. my trucks name is mr.blue.a common ford name. i feel my truck is a truck but has a spirit and a attitude,if someone said heres a 2012 ford truck, i really couldn't let this truck go for a new truck,,, i do think its possible for trucks to have a soul or energy to bind to their owners. a bond stronger than love. kinda like mans best friend. but i put alot of work and heart into this truck, hours of waxing
and pick and pull hunts,. i drove my ex wife home after my wedding i drove her home in it. when i got divorced i slept in my truck for a month, plus its fun to drive,
u cant get that ol ford feeling from a modern day truck, maybe for some its hit or miss, maybe some think class and modern luxury and some appreciate the ol glory days of ford steel and style. but, i told my girlfriend when i got home, i hated her. :thup:

You picked her up, but you didn't say where you would drop her off at! I short little walk may make her appreciate your truck a bit more!

Some people just don't "get it". No reason to be mad at her really. I feel sorry for those type.
If you want to drive around in a brand x, faceless buzz box and consider something older than 05 just a worn out pile of junk. Well, that's their business. It's just too bad that they lack the insight to look beyond sparkly new stuff and enjoy life for what it really is...imperfect.
My gal has a near new Subaru, but it has hardly any miles on it, because she drives my 51 step most everywhere, even named it. It's nice when you can share the same feelings about stuff like that.

I call that "TRUCKMANCE" . Me and my truck are having one, and my wife gets jealous sometimes.
Haven't YET sleep in it. So I guess is still a PLATONIC TRUCKMANCE. :wink:

From this and the other threads, it sounds like you and this lady might not be a great match. None of my business, but if you're having trust issues over borrowed money, and now this with the truck... well how much strife should one put up with?
I had a lot of girls complain about how much time and money I spent on my cars but the one I married? The only problem I had with her was that she drove a Dodge. But I didn't try to change her and she didn't try to change me.

And if she decides the truck needs to go? Let me but in one more time and say this; You're gonna have problems with any girl and any truck, but the truck is the only one you can fix.

The truck I drive isn't open for discussion.

If your little feelers get hurt when someone doesn't like your truck I suggest getting a Prius. I hear they have a new model coming out, The "V" . I have a good idea what V stands for.

Hey man...howd u get my truck? Looks just like my 69 F250. If you told your girlfriend the truck's history it's no wonder she hates it...it's connected to another woman, your ex. If she doesn't know that, don't ever tell her...and get her paid off soon. Then fill up with gas and split...you can do a lot better and will once you get back on your feet financially. Just be patient.

If your biggest problem is she calls your truck a piece of *^%& then actually you're doing ok.

Now if she calls you a piece of *^%& then it may be a bit more serious issue.

She lent you the money to fix her, so she can't hate it or you THAT bad.

Maybe she needs to be a little more respectful and maybe you need to be not so easibly offended.

If the issue is bigger than this, then the truck really isn't the issue! (I think I said that before)
