Title: The Ol' Lady bought me a car
Post by: jimmymac on February 02, 2016, 02:07:46 PM
I told her I wanted it, and she told me no. Quit stressing her out and quit talking about it. Then I go to work the next day and she shows up in it and hands me the keys. ;D
She's a keeper.

She has no use for a car like that, Pinkerbell. :) :)
She said she was almost shaking the whole time she was driving it. Worried about wrecking it. :o

Nice!

Does your wife know it came with a brown haired woman in the passenger seat? Also, please post pictures of the brown haired woman in the passenger seat.  ;D

 :rotflmao:   I saw a 1973 Corvette at a show today for $19500.  Sorely tempted.

  Congrats on new ride.  I bought my wife a vette about 5 years ago.  She thought it was great.  Then over time she figured out if it was nice enough to drive the Vette it was nice enough to ride the bike.  In 5 years she put 3,000 on it. We sold it last fall.  They are still very nice and maybe some day after we quit riding we may get another.  LOL me quit riding.  Nope!!   Not for me again but seriously nice looking vette.  And red is the color to have.

That happened to me when I owned a Pontiac Solstice for 18 months.  I still managed to put 20,000 miles on it though.  I put 30,000 miles on bikes in the same time period.

Jimmy,
the longer you're married, the sooner you'll realize...
Her money is her money, your money is her money... (usually! Lol...)

But looks like this time was the exception...   ;)

Congrats! Looks sweet!
Drive safe... you know the old saying...("Wrap yer azz in fiberglass, drive a Corvette.")

Oh... question-
Why haven't you answered BDF's previous post?
We're.still awaiting the answer...
