I have the best wife!

We were at home the other night and Laura was out in the dinning room working on Cub Scout stuff. The door bell rang and I answered the door to be greeted by one of our scout parents dropping off an payment for a outing this weekend. He had left his 3rd gen truck running on the curb and when he got in and drove off my wife who can't see the truck from the dinning room said to me " Sounds like a Cummins!" What a great wife! I love her so much!

Yep, it doesn't take them long to get the Cummins in their system also.

 

[BIGNASTY]

Sounds like a Keeper!!!!!!

I used to have a dog who would bark every time a cummins powered truck came up the road to our house. Even could identify my B series powered Case tractor. She wouldn't bark at a semi or other diesel vehicles.

Now the next step is for her to be able to identify 1st, 2nd gen 12 and 24-valve, 3rd, and 4th gens by sound. For bonus points, add the Ford and GM diesels in there also. Never stop learning... ...

every time my wife hears my 11 model Ford PSD running she says,"Well, I see it made it home again!"...

In the summer I used to take my kids to the woods a lot. One day my youngest (about 3) was riding with me in one of the Detroit powered skidders and he asked me if it had the same motor as the log loader. I was surprised at him because they were both powered with 4-53 Detroits. So I said yes but how did you know? He said "because it hears the same":-laf He cracked me up

My wife also loves the Cummins. She loves to drive it pulling the 5er or not pulling anything. When we go places pulling the 5er, she drives half the time, but then I think she has a little diesel in her blood. She's special.

Interesting thread, My wife was born on a midwest diary farm, she drives tractor and is not afraid to get behind the wheel of "Duke" my Dually 3500 6 speed truck and drive away. When we walk the block and a PowerStroke goes by she almost always asks, "Why do those Ford diesels all sound like crap" ? I have to laugh every time.
