And here I was getting in the right head space for a full louver on the back glass, what a let down.

I don't like it myself but I would at least do what you did and stuck it up, now you just need to gently almost imperceptibly guide the conversation so she's the one who says she doesn't like it. That's the ultimate goal or perhaps it departs from level flight on the highway and wouldn't you know it, truck behind me went right over it, smashed to bits. Sorry dear.

She's so happy.

"I thought you hated it!"

"I thought I really messed up getting that, and I thought it was so cool!'

"It looks so good, and I'm so happy you like it"

Might even ..............................

Well you know,

Tonight.

Maybe tomorrow night too.

oh, stangest thing, I got a warning today by a plain clothes officer walking by my truck while I was getting out. He said I’m lucky I hadn’t been pulled over yet for my blade because it obscures vision.
I was going to say the same thing - the rearward view is definitely impaired. I would have told my wife that I got pulled over and the cop gave me a warning.

That being said, it's pretty damn cool your wife was thinking of you and bought something to make your truck better (considering it was leaking). That's a keeper right there. ?

I think it's awesome your wife is trying to share your passion. Any one of us (men, women, gay, or straight) would consider ourselves lucky to have our significant other not only show interest in our hobbies, but actively support them!

I'm not at all implying that you're not grateful, because you definitely don't seem to be, but I am saying to wear that thing with pride. I hope every time you walk out and see it you think, "man, I'm the luckiest guy alive!".

What a shame that on your short trip on the interstate it fell off…..
Although, if the worst thing your wife does is buy you something for the thing you love, keep her.

Lol, that's sweet of her, she pays attention to you. Bonus points to her for putting thought into a fix for it on her own (even if it didn't quite work out properly).

I am so glad my wife stay out of and minds her own business on my Gladiator and gun collecting hobby.
