Rob Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 You know, after 31 years of being married to my sweetheart, you'd think I'd know what not to do to make her unhappy with me. Well, I guess after all this time, there are still some things to learn. One is this: Don't place a "For Sale" sign on her truck!!Girl was INSTANTLY mad, (and I mean MAD) at me for this; (I only wished she was as nice as an old wet hen when that way). Made me give her the title, (she did) and locked it in the strongbox which I do not know the combination for.Wonder if I'll sleep on the couch tonight; awhhh hell: I already know the answer to that one.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Freightrain Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 LOL!!! Good one Rob.I tried the same thing with the B model. G/f came UNGLUED and demanded that I NEVER sell it. If I did, she'd buy it and keep it at her place so that I could always have it back when I wanted it.Dang women!!! Always demanding SOMETHING!!! Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

MATTNaw, I was just looking to "get her goat". She commented that we was gonna need to reduce costs to keep me fed, so she named off six of my trucks to "junk".Never thought I'd get such a rise outta her though!!That A-40 is our favorite truck. It'll never be sold.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bollweevil Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I'm glad you straightened that out, reception for anything might not be to good from under the house. It would be even more miserable if she also had custody of the dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackdaddy1911a1 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Bollweevil's right I have 3 X's and have slept under the house a few times, HOWEVER NEVER I SAY NEVER will they get my dog. Coarse I didn't say anything to em about selling IT either. Quote THE GREATEST NAME IN TRUCKS MACK TRUCKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Rider Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Lynn would sell my A in a freakin heartbeat!!!!!!! She says I love that truck more than her. I tell her no, who do I go to bed with every night? Her answer," If the garage was heated you would be out there!" She can't ride in Faith for more than 1 hour or her back is killing her. I replaced the hideous buckets with a nice leather bench from a Caravan, but that slammimg and pounding on bumps is too much for her.

You could go with an air seat with the hand pump and they ride well also.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Freightrain Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I got some left over Tbar seats sitting at the house Greg. More then welcome to pick thru them and take what you need. Not sure if there is enough for two good ones? I used what I needed and left the rest sit.My g/f always says "my list of importance": the race car, the blue truck, the blower car, the Mack.....THEN her LOL!!I give her crap all the time, so she always tries to give it back.

Hope you two make amends quickly.... couches are uncomfortable!I ain't gonna mention it again. She bought herself a new "hollow grinder" at the tool store yesterday for the butcher knife, and promptly threatened me while testing it out.I swear, the dog rates higher than I. It could crap at the foot of the bed and somehow it would be my fault.

I have a hollow grinder, but you put whole peppercorns in the hollow part. Then you can twist it around and fresh ground pepper comes out the end of it.

Momma just demonstrated her newfound technique to me. She carved a figurine out of a hot dog in about eight seconds that looked like a pink "gumby". I thought that was purty neat till she said, "You be next".
