Dual Exhaust Cat Back
I tried to sell my wife on a new exhaust for my truck. But I went for the better mileage route. It didn't pay for the exhaust over the time period alloted. Dang!!
Maybe she'll let me put a supercharger on her SUV...

KT - I do occasionally win a case with my wife. Sometimes she just chooses to ignore my clear victory. She is a woman after all despite her engineering degree. She is very smart, but she is a woman. Like the time I told her to put the registration in her vehicle. Her response was "I've never done that before." Naturally, I was dumbfounded into silence. Seriously, the first words out a cop's mouth when he pulls you over is "License and registration." It's in real life and every single tv show.
I do win more than you think. Like the JD4310 in the shop. The 65" widescreen HDTV. The new stereo receiver, etc. I can usually find a way. But I didn't on the exhaust. I gave up because I wanted some else more. The old slight of hand trick. I give in on this, not because you won, but because I really wanted this more.

Well, I'd call the 4310 tractor a clear victory. Especially after she mowed with it the first time. After that first time, she strongly prefered to mow with only it. Actually, thinking back, I don't think she mowed using anything else afterward...
With some work and planning, I can usually get what I want within reason. I have to be reasonable about it and it takes time and effort. A Porsche 911 Turbo doesn't fall into the reasonable category no matter how much I want one. I don't think a new truck falls in there either. Sigh...

Forgot to mention that it's not that much skill on my part, but more of a reflection of how tolerant my wife is. That and she likes technology too.

She misses the Mustang GT Convertible she had. But when the kid showed up, the car had to go since it wasn't all paid for yet and we couldn't afford to have that and a real vehicle for a baby.
That Mustang was a fun car. We'll get another one someday assuming gas isn't $10 a gallon.
