If you let her ride in the cab she would probably like it more.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Funny woods. lets face it, I think it has been estasblished earlier in other threads for the most part the wives and girlfriends are not in the same league of passion for the old iron. As an example my wife's eyes glazed over the other day when I went into the discussion how I ran into another bump owner who drives the truck daily like myself. In my area that is a rarity.

that probably would have killed the good energy in the car a little.

Yeah, but it's the perfect scenario for evacuation and man overboard drills, not to mention skunk training.

thankfully we'll have to wait till a later date to find out whether or not good energy is killed by pooping one's self ........mostly cuz i'm not really looking forward to doing the research on this

Back when I got my old truck my wife's mazda broke down and we had no money until payday to fix it, so my truck was the only transportation for the rest of the month. I had to take my wife to work because nobody else could shift my truck, and my wife would make me stop about a block away and she would walk the rest of the way because she was to embarrassed to be seen in a POS. I had to remind her that the so called POS got us both back and forth to work and everywhere else we needed to go. It was a POS to her but for me it was a lifeline, without it we'd been screwed probably ended up getting one of those payday to get stuff to fix her import.

The wifes '02 Explorer lost the starter last Sunday evening after dark. She expected me to go out in the cold and work on it, asked what her options were for taking the kids to school were. My only replie was 'feet'... I did tell her that once the '70 was done she could drive it.

Explorer broke the solenoid wire terminal so I got to lay under the truck for a couple hours in the rain 'fixing it' Monday...
