    damn is that the trick? LOL. I tell her she has to wear the same socks over and over again cuz if we buy her some then thats less mod money. LOL. JK

    She gets mad because she was under the impression my vehicle purchase was gonna be just that, a vehicle purchase, but it ended up being the start to something much bigger. She's kinda come to accept it and recently declared she actually liked something about my truck: My new touchscreen pioneer, and thats about the only thing she likes about it. LOL.

    My girl is all about practicality and function, and not "stupid 'performance mods'". So she got reeeaal pissed when she found out I bought headers, and not a $150 replacement manifold.

    She doesn't really understand my obsession with modding...

    As far as maintenance is concerned, she's a great help, and parts couldn't be easier to get as she works at Autozone.

    All in all, I love her, and she's talked me out of many stupid money wasting mods :eek:.
