After being found under the hood with the tools in the garage. "Why do you have that quilty look on your face.....oh..you promised"........

I was working on the new truck within 24 hours and the purchasing department wasn't happy! She said all she asked was that I not mess with it for a while.

I wasn't messing with it hun' I was making it breath better, it didn't need the silencer ring or baffles!!

 

They just can't seem to understand that the factory doesn't do a good enough job and they need us to do the engineering for them.
"If it's not good enough then why did you buy it?"
" Why didn't you just buy one that has all this stuff on it already?"
Mine doesn't seem to mind the free mods like you were doing. She gives me a little crap when I start spending money though. If she only knew the half of it...

 

My wife would say,here let me do that,your doing it all wrong

 

I only work on other people's trucks at my house!

Have fun with the new ride!

My mom asked me why I modify my truck. It was perfectly fine from the factory. And this is what I told her, "It was satisfactory from the factory. Now it's almost perfect."

 

2 days after I brought it home from the dealer. The wife found out I was down at the tire store getting upgraded, she called me on the cell phone and tenderized my ear drum.

 

My purchasing Dept LOL said when I say a mod won't cost anything that means $250 or less

 

Sometimes it's better to just do it and hear about it rather than ask and do it anyway. I found that waiting 'til she's out of town is best to do things, heck most the time she doesn't even notice!

 

Just tell her the mod's ur making saves fuel so you can spend more money on her.

 

my wife is pretty cool about everything. i just bought a new 2005 CTD 600 ( "New Truck" ) and the first thing she asked is "when are we going to straight pipe it?" i guess she liked how the 2003 sounded.


God i love this woman

I was busted the exact same way.. She really gave it to me, WHY DO YOU NEED THAT DIFF COVER.. What the Heck are you doing to the OIL system???? Oh my god. that is how much? AND WHAT IS IT GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOING TO DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..... ARE YOU KIDDING... WHY DO YOU NEED NEW TIRES? THESE ARE EVEN BROKE IN>>>
Well I can't hear to well, due to my truck, and it is because of the diesel.

My wife usually wants to test out the mods right after they go in. That's how I got the South Bend Con OFE - she was test driving it an hour after the DD2's went in and nailed it at 1800 RPM in 5th gear! Her next comment was "Why is the (stock) clutch slipping?" The next day, the Con OFE was on order.

You know what they say, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

 

Mine said its time for stacks honey, they turn me on!!!!! Whats a guy to do? Yep I love this woman as well.

 

My financing department wont let me play with it for a wile. She wants nerf bars and that is abought all she will allow. She says I have tomany other expensive toys. 2 new ATVs and a several hundred dollar nitro powered RC car, I guess I cant argue to much. Some day I will have rims and tires and grafix and flares.
