not married but I get the "you love your car more than me" from my girlfriend all the time.

Usual response consists of one word.

"and?"

Since I am single, I don't have that problem. I do have a problem with all this rain we keep getting. If I wash the car or take the top out, it rains or turns cold. Not funny.

My girlfriend once she wanted to be a corvette because then she would get all of my attention. I didn't have the heart to tell her that my corvette costs a lot less money than her, it never disagrees with me, and it performs whenever I want it to.

I mean no disrespect to the ladies on this forum, I posted this for humor only.

That line only works if your car is old enough. I'll have to wait another decade to use that line for a 96.

My wife has said this to me few times. I politely remind her that she must love shoes and jewelry more than she loves me. The conversation usually stops there.

When I was looking at my 89 before I purchased it, my wife drove it and said, "make the deal" so I did. I didn't get to drive it at all that first week so I jokingly said we should get the 91 we were looking at so we both have one to drive, she said " go get it" so we did! We have an 89 and a 91 so there's no fighting over it on a sunny day. She never comments on what I am doing on the cars as long as there is one to drive at the time. I am lucky!!

if you stay single, you don't have to worry about a scrap being thrown your way to feel lucky. you get to be lucky every day.

the ball and chain deal reminds me of being age 9, happy being told what to do and answering to mommy.
