My girlfriend hates my truck, but I feel that I'll have my truck until I die. My girlfriend, probably much less. Who would you be more dedicated to?

My wife loves both of my trucks. The sound, ride, smells and all. She thinks the stock or stock size straight pipes sound sad. She loves that it drives like a TRUCK not a Geo. Still planing on the 1ton Cummings powered 4x4 Jeep Grand Wagoner Her idea and I love it. Already did a Jeep M715 1 1/4 ton weapons carrier which is the same thing with a truck bed. She road in a GM 6.5 turbo Wagoner that a friend made and she wanted it. Also goes to tractor pulls and likes it as much as I do even the locals and when I pull.

My wife quietly hates mine! After convincing her we 'needed' it, and it only needed a 'little' work after the $3500 admission price it would be a good truck.
Well, a year and a half later and more money put into parts and services than I paid for it just to make it a good truck and it still ain't on the road, and it took up her garage space for almost a year.....................Yeah, she hates it!

Maybe so, but the visual indications of a rough suspension are both wonderful

I think my wife might be coming around a bit. She told me she wanted to get me a spray on bedliner for my birthday (march 5th!) but though (correctly) that I needed to weld the bed first where I split it out with many tons of firewood, and whe wondered if we should wait until after the truck gets a repaint!

She still won't drive it mind you, and doesn't like to be bounced around in it, but I was happy at the thoughtfull turn of events....

all of which are true, but i like it, so there
... ditto mine, plus she doesn't like my '79 35' 5th wheel camper trailer, thinks it smells "moldy" just because it does. So I've had to shop around, ...er, for another place to live; I'm outa here come Spring, my truck, tlr and dog, ...well that was ONE solution I didn't see so far on this thread! ...

Just about every girl I date either hates it from the get-go or hates it after I tell them they WILL NOT drive it...
