Great Wife

[wildcard]

I have a great wife. She makes lye soap at home and a store in Jefferson sells it for her. They let her know when it's getting low and she carries more up there and picks up her money. Well Friday. she took HER money and bought me a new Humminbird 550 fishfinder for my boat. She said it was just because she loved me. And she likes to ride in my 71. Don't get much better than that.

Sounds like you got a keeper there!! My wife grabbed the keys to my 68 yesterday and drove me to Sonic for a coke after working in the yard all day. She hasn't had much experience driving manual transmission vehicles, and her only experience with a column shift is my truck. She did great!! I talked her through the whole way, and she never stalled once. I'm so proud of her.

I definitely have a great wife. We already have my 70 F250 and her 70 F100. For my 40th birthday this year she bought me a 68 F250 highboy to restore. Good thing we have a big sideyard to park all these. She loves driving her truck and riding with me in mine. We wiil probably argue on who gets to drive the highboy when its done but i'm sure I will cave in. Gotta keep her happy.

My wife would get along with yours, I can just tell.

My wife buys me power tools, lets me steal the dishsoap to wash my greasey hands, and understands when I need to rebbuild a chainsaw in the [censored].....cus it's "cold" outside.

Oh ya, and she dint even bat an eye when I traded a 1998 olds Bravada 4x4 straight even for a late 50's Farmall 400 with a loader...
--or that '69 F100 I picked up last month; rescued it from a scrapper who was gunna crush it
--oh, and then there's the 22 foot Century cabin cruiser, sterndrive with a GM 305 marine engine sittin beside my garage---I have nuthin to tow it to the lake.....yet. Besides, it needs some major work to run anyway.

At least she understands, and buys me tools/parts for all muh toys!
