    I knew it! This makes perfect sense.

    Several years ago, I came across a great deal on a Corvette on a business trip in Florida. Wife said "yeah, you should do it...NO YELLOW!" Well yes ma'am. The car was yellow. That means an automatic upgrade...right?

    Strange that she wanted to buy a new house not shortly after.....

    I was sniped.

    It just occurred to me.

    Your gif contains the word "motherfucker".

    So you think Oedipus was justified?

    Or are you "joking"?

    Fascinating...

    Sure does. My wife owns 5 horses - 3 race horses and 2 stall-bound "pets". She can't tell me not to buy anything if I want or need it.

    My wife is happy.
    I have a happy life.
    This is not causal.
    As,
    I have a happy life.
    My wife is happy.
    Is also true.

    I love my Taco.
    My wife’s Taco is happy.
    These are completely causal.

    Just bought the MBRP sliders! I guess I will have to get out in the desert more often and prove their value.

    Let us know how you like them! Just removed my OEM running board and judging by how bashed up they are from just mall crawling, I think sliders are next!

    LS1 swap with nitros.
    She signed off on the form that quickly? Usually takes a few days after you present them with it.

    Drums still have plenty of braking power.

    Oh crap, I hope the rear "drums" are enough braking power to account for the added weight of my new sliders.

    I don’t understand the shitting on drums. My dads suburban is at 3xx,xxxkms now has rear drums and done a good amount of towing. I think he has done his drums 2 times in its whole life! Thing still stops and tows like monster.
