    whoa now, I was just saying it's not a good idea to tell certain people to simply fuck off. it's alot more civil to have a legit excuse as to why they can't tag along..

    If anything "Its a truck" bugs me. If I abuse my shit than fine, but I dont want others abusing it with the justification "its a truck man!" like leaving trash in it, slamming the door on the buckle, banging their doors into it etc...

    This is turning out better than I thought it would.

    And yes, other people should never abuse your truck and then say "it's ok, it's a truck". The best response for this is, "ya bitch, but it's my truck".

    My House Usually
    Backing up and out of the parking with the wife in the truck, I backed up over the curb.

    Wife looks at me and says "You totally would have yelled at me if I did that in my car".

    I says, "Yeah, but it's ok, this is a truck, not a honda."

    Any women here wanna chime in with why she took a swing at me next???? Crazy lady.

    I do what I want in my truck. I'll hop a curb if it's quicker. My girl would say "you'd yell at me if I did that".

    "I can do what I want in my truck"
