And I mean new! I'm harvesting garlic scapes now and stopped by a florists shop to see if they would be interested in some. There on display is a 1948 F1 that is meant to hold flowers. I bought the truck, well actually she gave it to me with the promise I'll bring her garlic bulbs later this summer. So gentlemen, it's a no brainer...get your lady some flowers in the truck and confiscate the truck when the blooms fade!

You may be onto something GB, bring home the real thing but fill the bed with flowers and tell her it is a vase....she can't get mad!!

Good for you James, our Wives deserve little reminders of just how great they are. Heck in your case, you get to keep the truck, so it's a win, win. LOL

A few days ago my wife came home from the second-hand store with a big smile on her face because she bought me one of these trucks & put a plant in the box. My wife enjoys working on our truck almost as much as I do. Can't get much better than that.
