Wife Says We Don't Need That many vehicles?

[FranklinJL]

So I'm getting ready to sell my wifes junker honda pilot. She said we should keep the pilot for one of the kids, and "sell one of those 100k hot rods"....problem is I like my cars, and since I'm a auction buyer, I've never paid anything close to what any of these cars are worth.

Maybe I should just back off on getting rid of her "baby"....even though I think it'd a [censored] vehicle...

Or just sell the pilot anyway, and make the kids get a job and buy thier own car? Or at least pay insurance...

Easiest solution is to get rid of the wife.

i want to see pics of this 68 camaro.

 

[daves87rs]

Well, if it's doing no harm, can't hurt to keep it...

I assume you and your wife can come to some sort of agreement as to what vehicles you want to own. Anything I or anyone else here has to say on the matter, well,,, doesn't matter.

I can't help with the Pilot, but if you want to cut one of the cool ones loose, let me know via PM.

 

[Farmer]

Get rid of the Pilot. Is she defensive because she got a ticket driving the X5M?

 

[DuckRyder]

Well, obviously she's correct you don't need two trucks, two german hotrods and a 900 HP "Camara"...

So if the thing that precipitated the revelation is selling her "baby" then maybe you should back off that if you don't want to sell one of yours...

If you're posting, and you want an opinion...

If I had 1-2-3-4-5-6 fancy toy vehicles.
I'd let my wife keep a vehicle if she wanted it.

 

[RooflessVW]

I suppose it depends on how long it will be before the kid is of driving age.

It may make sense to sell the Pilot now while it is still worth something and buy another in a few years to save yourself the depreciation.

It is a shame that you aren't mature enough to work out the issue with your wife directly rather than airing your dirty laundry on a discussion forum.

Why do you need to sell the Honda? Just keep it. Then everyone can keep their favourite toys.

 

[blupupher]

So your wife can't keep the cheapest of your 7 vehicles?
What a 1%'er problem.

 

[Andrew1972]

Your wife is right you don't needthat many vehicles.

Your question?

 

[Trav]

Don't worry about it, they get use to it in time. Selective hearing for you is the key.

How can a 2011 Pilot be a junker? Your answer lies in the quote "happy wife = happy life."

 

[Kruse]

Does your wife have a hobby?
Perhaps there are a few of her items you don't need.

I recently cut back on the number of vehicles in my fleet. Significant reduction in insurance costs, less time working on older vehicles, more space in parking area.
