The Wife's Truck

Folks,

My wife has claimed our '71 as hers. She has a Durango and loves it, but has always been keen on old American Iron. <she's from Northern Ireland> And the truck is not for show. It's a worker!







Thanks for all the advice I've gleaned from this site - I don't post much, but I read a lot.

Best regards,

Ray & Kara
Boyertown, PA

Re: The Wife's Truck

d4xycrq ...your wife shows wisdom beyond her 20 yrs. Not only did she hook you as her hubby... She ended up with your truck. Thats what I call an American Lady.

Oh yes... from Ohio.

Re: The Wife's Truck

Sounds like it's time to get another truck...have a 'his' and 'hers' matching set. Seems like a perfect excuse.

Re: The Wife's Truck

I don't blame her, that's a good lookin' truck

I married a red head too. It's hard to tell them no when they set their mind to something!

Re: The Wife's Truck

Ah, the Irish always have good taste, especially in vehicles. You married up, my friend. I married a gal from your neck of the woods, Norristown, to be exact. I married up too.
