Hit 40 years married shortly after her cardiac arrest last August and a lot of things don't matter anymore(life is short) so that is when I got the tunes.
For sure.

Things like that either bring you together or tear you apart.

Our mentality as a couple changed very much after my wife's major medical issues a half decade ago. She's mostly all good now, hope all is well with you and yours.

She was doing good until her defibrillator shocked her last week, so now back to square one with the fear of her heart stopping. o_O

I know it’s scary, but thankfully the defibrillator did it’s job.

No spouse ... so, my fixed income makes 90% of the decisions. The other 10% is function.

Mrs. Motorpsychology is the Chief Procurement Officer in our household, she does all the bills, I'm on Outside Duty; vehicle care and grilling. We both tuck away money in physical envelopes for our pet projects; she for quilting, me for motorcycling related farkles, and we discuss major purchases

The biggest "mod" I had to get past her was convincing her that we really needed to trade our 2018 Escape in on a factory order Ranger, which I could've bought in the first place (wish we had, I love Hot Pepper Red), as we bought the Escape in 2019. After that, Tonneau cover & mudflaps, only rated "the look." She honestly liked the ride and seats in the Ranger and is genuinely looking forward to delivery.
Biggest mod of all.

Many years ago I came home with a brand new Fiat X19 that I bought with out any input from my wife. I still have the scars and I never did that again. I was looking at old Rangers, and she talked me into a new one. I am glad she did I really like my truck. We are coming up on our 63rd year of marriage, so I guess I survived the Fiat.

I’m super lucky, because my Wife loves cars and trucks as much as I do... I mean, the day I brought it home, she asked me what exhaust I was thinking about getting installed. Here’s the other cool thing- I have my credit cards and she has Hers- the deal is: buy anything you want, just don’t ask me to make your payments! Works out great- no “honey do” list to have to complete if I hope to but - whatever

My fiancée keeps telling me to just order the tune already, probably because she’s tired of hearing me talk about it but overall she really doesn’t care what I do or buy for the truck. She actually enjoys driving it a lot.

Were the scars from the Fiat or the wife? :LOL:
