wife saved the day

[ftb87]

A funny thing happend to me yesterday. While riding our bikes in the subdivision (about a mile from home), I get a flat on my bicycle and the pull cart (for my daughter).

Well, I said to my wife (who said she would never dive my truck becuase it was a 5-speed and too big). Looks like you'll have to go get the truck and pick the two of us up. She said no, she would go get her car but I would have to push the bike back home.

Well, about 5 minuites later I hear the rumble of the cummins diesel! I thought that couldn't be her, but it was #ad
! I said thanks for bring me the truck. She said not a problem, it was easier to drive than she thought.

Frank, I hate to say this but you'll be driving the car from now on because she will definately get the fever if she hasn't already got it!! #ad


I know from experience. I let the wife drive mine a couple of months after I got it. Then one day I was in the canteen at work and noticed my truck was gone!! I panicked and went up to security to asked them if they saw who took my truck. The two security guards (Both Women) giggled at me and said "Jennifer took it". I looked and saw the Grand Cherokee sitting in the spot in front of where I parked my truck. I left and could here them bust out laughing while I was walking down the hallway. (Dam bunch of Oprah watchers)
I don't know how much life has expired from my clutch or syncro rings in the transmission, but I'm just glad I didn't have the HotEdge installed then!!

Needless to say I've hidden the spare keys and remote.

A little different, but almost the same. A couple of years back visiting my 91 year old mother, she said no way I'm I going to be able to get in that big truck. With the running boards and after showing her the hand hold ( you guys with new trucks don't get them anymore ) she scampered right in. Next thing she wanted to do is drive it, good thing it is an auto. She said she wanted to trade in her Aeries on a Ram!!! It took her about five minutes to crawl into the seat of that K-car. Unfortunately she didn't live long enough to do her trade in, but she did get to experience riding high before she went.

My wife took over my bombed 2wd. She loves that thing. She says she has learned the majic of givin' her a little fuel at start up when a PSD or unworthy Chevy gasser is next to one of the pipes. Really, she's worse than me #ad
It's ok, though, my bombing equipment is coming in this week for my too stock 4x4 #ad

My truck is an 01 with 21,000 miles. Wifey has never drove it. She says she could if she had to. It's not cause I don't let her,she don't want to. I think all the gears scare her just a tad.

She did it again!!

Bug season has hit with a vengance and if it's after dark, we usually take another route to the local store to keep from going across the bridge that crosses a swamp area.

I was rotating her tires and she needed to go to the store. She drove to the store throughn the swamp and of course she came back that way. GRRRR!!

The front of my truck and windshield looked like she hit one of those bug creatures on "Starship Troopers".

I wonder if I should just fill the windshield washer tank up with WD-40?
