I've created a monster!

I let my wife drive my truck for the weekend to show off to her girlfriends on a girls weekend.

You guessed it!

Now all she wants to drive is my truck!

I even washed and waxed her 2000 Mustang, which she had intended on trading for an 05 Mustang, in hopes that it would rekindle some interest. To no avail!

All I hear about now is, Truck this, truck that, truck,truck, truck, truck!

Any advice?

Right now I'm just

My girlfriend is the same way. She's got the dead throttle curse figured out, makes sure it's plugged in for at least 2 hrs before she takes it and knows what to do when the death wobble starts- BRAKE!!!!!!!. Just can't get her to pull the horse trailer yet.

WHEN SHE DOES I WILL MARRY HER !

Should be easier to get support when wanting to add bombs! Then, do what Shovelhead advised, buy her a stock 06.

Buy a Mega-Cab when it becomes available and then give her your current one.

Rule #1 of owning a big truck, don't let the wife drive it cuz she'll either never want to drive it again, love it to death, or tear up something. In my case, it was both the first and third reason. Just my 2 cents...

My gf won't even ride in mine. She keeps shaking her head and muttering "You're such a redneck." I even offered to repaint it a little less redneckish as she calls it and still. Guess I should count my blessings, I don't have to fight for it

Mine says I'm a redneck too, but she like's it. I had her convinced to take mine and I was going to get an 02 HO w/6spd, but the dineros weren't there. She's dying to try out a diesel Liberty, and she's got to where she kind of grins when I talk about straight piping one.
