That may be what you tell the wife, but my crate LS3 sure as sheet didnt cost 9 grand. That thing will be a beast nonetheless no matter what it cost.

Paintwerks - congrats on the pick up. Sorry I missed you guys the other day.
I was hoping to get down with Bernie but the family was down the peninsula and I was looking after our little one, while the wife was booked in for a "hot springs" treatment.

Modena, it's funny how you've worded that...
I know I can be just terrible at trying to find any logic to justifying purchases to myself, before running them past the wife. The funny part is, despite my incredibly poor ability to validate, the wife is pretty understanding and forthcoming. Ehhh... She's a keeper!
