Well my truck ain't got a radio so that's a non-issue. As long as they don't tell me how to drive or screw with the heater I don't care much. Pets? As long as it ain't one of those little lap dogs that my dog will choke on. I lost a real good dog that way (LOL)

Like the beer commercial: Passenger can change station with driver approval, but driver has final say, and the radio will never stop at 90's boy bands.

If people ask first, and don't mind both windows being all the way down, they can smoke. If you're that hooked, you can deal with a 25 degree, 45mph wind, it aint bothering me.

Don't ever, EVER, tell me how to drive. Only exceptions are the sudden hazards, or the 4 yr old doing it.

They can change the heat/ac usually because it gets too hot/cold & I'm too lazy to reach over & do it myself.

Pets are in a cage, in the bed.

Fast food is fine. I spilled ranch dressing in there once, and that was a PITA to get out. No more rabbit food after that one, damn healthy diets

My wife does all of that...hmmm...distract the driver is my big verboten. She'll say something, it could be ten miles before she gets the vacant "huh?" out of me. But I do back that up with results, she has watched me avoid stuff she never saw coming.

My advice to all who are sensitive to driving critique: There is a speed where anyone will just STFU, you have yet to find thier threshold.

None of the above are allowed in my truck. It looks showroom new for a reason. Now the wife's car? It looks like the fifth crash site on 9/11. Completely thrashed. She let's the kids do just about whatever they want in there and the car is only 6 months old. It's brand new and it just drives me up the wall.
