Default Here's the big question Wife or car?

I'm sure this question has be brought up before. How many of you get biotched at by your wife because you supposedly spend more time with your car than you do with her? - mine has even gone so far as to say I must be having an intimate affair with it.

So which should I get rid of, the car or the wife?

There are millions of women, but not that many ZR-1s........wife goes. ZR-1s are also cheaper.

I'm one of the lucky ones I guess, my wife encouraged me to buy the car and insisted we postpone the wedding by a year to do so and supports me 100% with my obsession.

I'd trade her before the ZR-1 though...

I can't vote. The wife left and then I got the car.

Sal, what's up with the hydraulic system?

I told the wife that "she should have been born with two doors"..............that one didn't go over too good.
Then I continued sticking the size 10 in my big mouth with , "and 4 tires."

Still very married. 30 year's August 25th.

Lee,

I know you are saying this tongue in cheek otherwise you have slipped the noose around your own neck.
There's bound to be a link sent anonymously to your wife's email addy.

LOL - so these cars cause wives to leave on their own accord?

Actually I haven't had a chance to play with the car last night - she "requested" I sit and watch a movie with her instead. Can you guess where my mind was that whole time?

Just tell her the car keeps you from spending more time hanging out at the pool hall gambling with your drinking buddies.

Been there done that twice. Once restoring my 68 Mustang. And now with the Corvette. I never heard the end of it. So I figured hell why not just put the iceing on the cake. So I grew a big ole beard. She really really hates that. I said thats cool. My girlfreind does'nt mind.
