Well I am not equiped with a spousal unit, but I do have Rebee who many of you have met at the VPW rally.
She likes old trucks, enjoys traveling the country to look for old trucks, and wants one of her own.
The only problem is she is very specific (not that I would be considered picky or anything! :-) ).
The four options of Dodge truck that she will take are:
1. 1958 W100 shortbox, big back window, V8, 4spd, MUST be Omaha Orange! Needs to be all original, and in good rust free shape.
2. 1955-56 Town Wagon, V8, any color, any tranny. Also needs to be all original and rust free.
3. FF PW bus (I do not know HOW she will see out of it) I almost had to buy the one in MT, thanks to CC Matt for buying it before she could make me!
4. WC-52, winch equiped WWII 3/4 ton weapons carrier. Needs to be all original. She rode in the WC-51 I hauled at the rally, and she has wanted one ever since!
She does not want a W300, FF, or a 4wd TW (too tall).
I spend way to much money on Dodge stuff, but I sell almost all of it, so I get no argument from her. When I talk about selling the trucks I like, she talks me out of it.
She can tell a early scout from a early bronco at 55mph, and spots trucks I missed in junkyards all the time.
She has this weird fixation on eating three meals a day, and she likes to sleep more then 3 hours a day while on the road, but other then that she is a good trooper! :-)
What part of the scale is that? 9? 10? 14?

P.S. Those were HER shoes Judd was talking about below! I wear size 12-13 in shoes, I can barily squeeze my big toe into a womens size 5!
