Went out for a short drive this evening with the top down and the wife in the other seat. About a mile from the house she said "I'm glad you got this car, you're sure having fun with it and so am I."

She's buttering you up so she can drive your car when you aren't. Beware !!!

I was thinkin something like that too... she must want something

Are you sure she hadn't been drinking:friday:

Mine says the same thing.........wait a minute I'm not married anymore

haha..these guys are so quick to bust your bubble! Maybe she's the one exception. :thumbsup:

HaHa! Mine must be another exception to the rule. She ENCOURAGED me to buy mine....well it was actually a trade...but she pointed out that ever since she had met me 20+ years ago, all I ever talked about was "One day, when I get my Vette". I got the entire "fate" speech and "you know you want it so do it" speech. Now that we have it she wants to go for a spin everyday!:beerbang:
She won't drive it though, I can't figure out if she's intimidated by it or if she's scared to death of hurting "my car". Either way...it's still mine and WE enjoy it tremendously!:burnout:

Yeah, Mine encouraged me to buy my vette, now I know it was because she wants to drive it(aint happenin), I just bought her a new silverado, and she bi***es about me driven it maybe once every 2 or so months. She can stay the hell outta My car. We do both have fun ridin in it.:cheers:

LOL! We bought a 2008 Limited Expedition in February '08. I wanted a BMW 5 Series. She wanted the Expy. You see what we got...so I think she was thinking that I'd forget about the Beamer if I had a Vette....it worked - LOL!:cheers:

Yeah, well they got the truck they wanted and we got the hotrods we wanted.lol.:burnout: :cheers:

My g/f was po'd when I brought mine home. She doesn't know or give a ***** about cars anyway. My Vette is probably faster in reverse than her tiny Kia Spectra is altogether. Well, probably not, but, I'd ditch her before I ditched my Vette.:rofl:

no I don't believe there is any one exception out there! A nice woman who compliments you is a woman who wants something outta you! :rofl:

And I thought I had the best wife in the world.....

no I don't believe there is any one exception out there! A nice woman who compliments you is a woman who wants something outta you! :rofl:

You go for that Sunday drive for 3 or 4 hours by yourself and Joey :seeya: shows up at the house to do yardwork!!!Lol.That's one way to both enjoy the Vette???????!!!!!!!!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Just Funnin Brother:cheers: :friday: :pigsfly: :secret: :secret: :secret: :secret: :secret: :secret: :secret: :secret:

I just hope nobody ever gives me the "It's me or the Vette you choose"
Specially in the middle of the highway...she's outa luck:smilielol5:

It sounds as though some of you did not choose well when it came time to select a wife. Maybe you were thinking with the head that is not on your shoulders.
My wife came to me one day and basically it went like this. I have saved $ XXXX. I said that is enough to buy a Pantera. She said "Then do it". Then a year later she said "I want a two seater sports car convertible". So I found the BMW M roadster for her. Then when I decided I wanted a C4 she said "We have the money. Go buy one". So I did.
We have been married 41 years now and still going great.

Mine was against me buying mine a week ago.
I told her I was going to fix everything then sell it and make a few bucks,she told me no your not your gona keep that car,she loves going for rides with the top off.
She say's the car is better than a woman in my midlife crisis

Damn rights, plenty of fish in the sea, but only so many vettes:beerbang:

Mine was against any car, but I didnt care. She married me knowing I was a car guy and always will be, makes me feel like I've done something good when I finish a restore on a car, cant wait till my vette is through.:burnout:

Ain't that the truth! I live in a big state...plenty of fine ladies here. :thumbsup:

This is my story too. My wife encouraged me to buy the Z06, and enjoys it WITH me. My wife will drive it though on occasion, but rarely. It is OUR car just like everything else we own. I've never understood why some guys take "ownership" of their Vettes over their wives.

I agree with Mr. Hyde I have a 81 & 89 my wife tells me the 89 is better to drive but the 81 is more fun. I trust her 100% to make the right decisions about driving and if something would happen the car can be fixed. My wife is everything to me so I can live with a car that isn't just right. 35 years of bless and many more to come.:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

About a mile from the house she said "I'm glad you got this car, you're sure having fun with it and so am I.":wheelchair: Just to be clear my wife doesn't want to drive the Vette, but she sure likes hop in the passenger seat and go for a spin just about every evening with the top down. I'm sure not going to argue with her.:burnout: :burnout:

Thats right man, dont argue just say yes ma'am, do what she says.lol

You my friend are a different kind of character, you want to figure out how to take your wife to a Brothel with you to watch you with a different woman, you want and admit to trying your best to get all the "squirrel" you can with your Vette, and you have your own wife's store bought breasts for all the world to see on your Avatar. Does your wife share your same beliefs? Would you want to hear her say that she wants to borrow the Vette so she can try her best to get all the d*ck she can?
Would you be happy going to a place to watch your wife get laid by someone else?
I'm not trying to start a p*ssing constest here, and I'm sure you're a great guy in person, but for the life of me I can't figure you out!

Atleast he doesnt beat around the bush about it, I admire that about a person, just be straight forward, 85/84, have a drink on me.:beer-fresh: :beerbang: :cheers:

I'm not judging the guy...to each his own, I just find that type of relationship odd.

True , it is kinda odd isnt it.:cheers:

That is awsome buddy, you have a keeper!

Yeah, well they got the truck they wanted and we got the hotrods we wanted.lol.:burnout: :cheers:

At least you still got the Vette:cheers:

:thumbsup: Plan on keeping the Vette too. :patriot: :seeya:

Good..you better, she's a pretty one:cheers:

I think that for the most part most wives are understanding about the connection between a Vette and it's owner.
