What my wife does in my truck

My wife, AKA "The Boss" so you will understand that I am at some risk for writing this, has the standard female approach to riding in my new Lariat:

The minute she gets into the truck she closes all the AC and air vents on her side, stuffs Kleenex in the door pocket and hand lotion tubes and bottles in the glove box where they stay forever unless I sneek them out at the car wash. She demands that the AC be turned down or the heat turned up and if we use the truck for a trip to the super market she leaves unused coupons all over the place. She has her own car, A Toyota Avalon, in which this stuff doesn't go on.....all the vents are closed permanently and the coupons seems to disappear on their own.

She also tends to tell me where to drive but that's another subject that I don't have the courage to bring up right now.

I suspect that you may have similar problems. :-)

Oh, my gosh! Sounds like a rerun of what happens to me. Don't forget the chocolate left in a cubby hole to melt in summer heat. And somehow plastic silverware will get into the glove box.

I have my top 4 Sirius radio stations saved in the preset buttons, yea the general changed them on me during our last road before I realized what she was doing.

How about a 2 month supply of napkins stuffed in the glove box...so many that you can't actually see anything else in there unless you first remove them all.

I thought about getting a bench seat in a new truck, but the thought of her stuff (crap) migrating to my side of the truck was enough to convince me that a console is the way to go.

Mines uses the door pockets as trash cans, mixing garbage in with useful stuff I keep in them. I've chosen not to engage in this battle, but at least she does it to hers as well....

only half that bad. AC or heat is always adjusted. Even though its set to AUTO. I'll find crap in the door pockets from time to time. Napkins are in the glovebox. However in reasonable volume.

After returning from a trip, I notice all the stuff that my bride has squirreled away....I dispose of of this junk immediately knowing that it will return.

Luckily for me, my wife doesn't like to drive my truck, she thinks it's too big and it's only slightly bigger than her Expy.

Yep, my wife does the same. Drives me NUTS! Her thing is soda cans; she's addicted to Coke Zero and typically takes one with her wherever she goes. She rarely remembers to take the empty can with her.

Mine likes to move her seat all the way back,take her shoes off,and put her feet up on the dash.I end up with footprints on the inside of the windshield.(she does have a nice pair of legs though!)

Same here! Drives me nuts, but I just choke back the words and clean it out.

Hmmmm... my wife doesn't mess with anything as far as settings, radio, a/c, etc. She doesn't trash out either one of the trucks !!

Her truck is immaculate !! The ONLY thing out of place is her sun glasses !!!!!!

I think I got lucky, and will keep her !!!!!!!

Sorry guys, your ladies are just marking their territory. It is frowned upon them peeing on your leg!

She can pee on my leg if that makes her happy, but she better not pee in my truck!
