1. What is the __(fill in the blank)__ item?

2. What is your reaction

..then you folks are diametrically opposed and in for a long hard road, just sayin'

My money, my choice of vehicles.
Her money, her choice of vehicles.

Jealousy!

But seriously she picked up a Durango Citadel the same day I picked up my camaro. In two years she willbe getting her dream car. A supercharged Land Rover HSE.

She already gets whatever she wants. She would never say that to me. She knows better.

When I got my last Camaro, she got to get a dog. With this one, she made me promise that I'd (eventually) get her a Nash Metropolitain. We can't afford it right now, but we'll get it for her eventually.

She GOT her Cadillac CTS. She drives this in the summer and drives the Yukon Denali XL in the winter. She is really roughing it.

Actually redoing the whole house right now. That was her big wish.

Bought the Camaro end of April- May the place got a new roof, July it got new siding , insulation and doors, now I am re-doing the kitchen, and the last thing both bathrooms get a makeover.

I didn't even ask. I just showed up in it to pick her up one day and blew her away. She squeeled with excitement. It will be her turn next vehicle, that's the way it works here.

Had this exact conversation when I was buying my Camaro.

She got a 2013 Ford Explorer XLT

Really nice vehicle. The few times I drive it, I am jealous of her interface.

She has the honor of welcoming it into the family!
