Well since I got the 2.3tls and the new Marantz SACD player, I had it coming she made me trade in her 2015 Kia Soul only 10 months old for this here new Nissan Titan it's a full size gas guzzling beaut, don't yall think. I tried to talk her into one them new fancy Nissan Leafs but she just laughed and said yeah right. I Tried to get her to go green but she did not want nothing to do with that.

You got to keep em happy, looks like any new audio purchases will be on hold a little bit. It came with a Rockford Fosgate sound system that gets loud and sounds pretty darn good. We got $8700 off it for a labor day deal. It set me back about what a pair of Joeys Speaker's cost. LOL.

    Are you going to go get it muddy now or what? Congrats!

    I had a Toyota pickup like that, V6. Was really slow but that thing was impressive off-road for a stock truck. Finally gave up the ghost at 325,000 miles. I miss that truck.

    Put 50 miles on it a little drive out to the lake and back sure glad the Gas prices are hovering around $2.29 if it lives up to its 17mpg in the City and the 23mpg on the highway we will be a happy camper.

    Torromow I need to rearrange her side of the garage it needs a lot more space than her Kia did might even hang a tennis ball on a rope for her as she was struggling to park it when we got back, I can only hope she don't go through the garage tonight when she returns as she's out cruising right now LOL.

    That's true but you don't have a list of thousands of dollars worth of stereo equipment on the side of your vehicle. I file it under the "better safe than sorry" category.

    As for the argument that your plate is already visible to anyone walking by your car, that's certainly true. It's just that the internet can so vastly expand the number of people able to see your license plate that it may become an issue. Still, as Officer Mosqueda told me with a certain degree of poetry, "You can't blur out real life." Sage words, Officer.

    ^This^ - I also like the fact she "didn't" want a, a, leaf? What a name for a car. Anyway, my oldest daughter is looking at full size pickups instead of a car for her first vehicle. I never bought my sons cars, they had to work and shell out the dough so she is having to do the same thing. I do, however, work on them from time to time, much to my wife's expectations and much to my irritation...

    Nancy Wilson sure is a sweetie, bet she's not that high maintenance. The wife's gone again she's got 212 miles on it its still got a little over half a tank of gas left, let's see if she still has that smile on her face after she sees what it's gonna cost to fill it compared to the Kia Soul :o .

    She wants a bambi rammer mounted on the front, and a Bedliner top, I told her to slow down and not to make any impulse buys, now that she's got the tow package she's off looking at something to tow behind it like a pop up camper. I wanted to get a picture of her next to her new ride but she said not unless her hair is done. She's gone time for some tunes,lots of time don't expect her back anytime soon I <3 my Wife.

    She has a foot of room on the right side but she continues to box my Sportage in we do have a retaining wall to the right and directly behind it across from the alley. We also have a pretty steep hill and a sharp corner going after about 20 attempts since she got it, this is her best parking job you can see how I had to squeeze my Sportage in. She needs some remidial parking training.

    I Hope she gets it down before winter's icy blast, I suppose she's still having a good time trying , perhaps I should just park outside. LOL
