I'm with you guys. I'll go where everynight I'm doing something to it, and then nothing for days. I come home from work and the first think the wife asks me is "You going to the garage". I try to spend a few days a week in the house with the family and the weekend afternoons also.

Yeah I gotta have secret money to do anything to it. Or beg for two weeks:( But seriously I do spend nearly every waking minute either on the truck or researching about the truck. Unless I am hunting that takes precedence over the truck:)

I hear ya. It took me six months to convince the other half that I needed tires even though there's only 5000 miles on the ones I had. Now I'm working on the exhaust. I had a leak in it and I was hoping when I got the truck inspected in July they would see it just so I could replace it, but they didn't. Now I have to start shmoozing up to her.

People are giving me greif for selling the Bronco for another Ranger. They ask me "why do you need a second one? You already have 2 trucks, sell one and just have one." What they don't get is 1, I'm single and have nothing better to spend my money on, and 2 it keeps me busy.

Thats what I tell my parents to get them off my back, and I think it's actually a good excuse.
