Very nice! What's the trunk mat look like? I was wanting to get something for it.



It's not really a money issue as far as mods goes.. he just doesn't want me to do them He doesn't understand the fun in it I guess

Haha, him and I are complete opposites when it comes to this topic. He doesn't like to spend money at all and doesn't even care to get gifts. He doesn't really care for many material possessions AT ALL. The only thing he has bought himself since we've been together is a 55" LED TV.

I predict good things for your marriage. If you get through this, you can get through ANYTHING

when i bought my 05, that was my reasoning in getting a mustang, beyond the fact i felt a car like a mustang needed a proper transmission (regardless of the arguments for autos).

i remember the first day i drove the corolla after i had to sell my stang, i felt so useless.

Sounds pretty selective to me... i mean buying yourself a TV is one thing but buying your self a 55" huge-o-tv is entirely different lol

And i could understand if you ask for permission if he is the one making all the money in the relationship. But if you work as well and you contribute evenly to the relationship you shouldn't have to be asking permission to mod YOUR CAR. like you said, he has his own car, he can do as he wishes with it.


Just my 2 cents

Nevermind, question answered. If I wasn't living at home still I'd put a 55" LED TV in front of my truck too

You realize a Shelby GT-H and a Shelby GT500 are 2 COMPLETELY different cars...

Certain exotic rentals like that in CA, FL, NY, IL- do infact have gt500's. But you gotta throw down some serious $.
