Let me know if you try this and it works.

thats a funny one , well even if i went down the road of saying it is for her that would be desastous she then would have me build it and then i wouldnt be able to drive it , true story ......

for sure the deal is going to go down while she is at work im gonna seak it in the garage and cover it and say im saving it from a bad family it has been abused .....

another thing to say is honey you know all those parts all over the garage and in shed well it will all go in one place soon ... :lol:

Get a twin brother like me, one of us lies the other of us swears to our respective wives and the other backs us up.:D

My wife wouldn't talk to me for months if I lied to her about that, or something that big. Plus, my conscience wouldn't be able to take it.

I think you should buy her a really nice, expensive gift (jewelry, trip, a day at a spa, etc.) then give it to her and tell her that you just bought something for yourself and wanted to get her something too. At least that will make her feel guilty about being mad at you when you got her this great gift as well.:thumbsup:

Been married only a few years, but i have started doing the same thing. I told her how much the car will cost and how much i'm going to spend in the long run and what my time frame is. Worked out well so far, and besides, in the future if she askes... i have total right to say, "we talked about this before" :D

Exactly, my wife knows every car I have and whenever I get something new, the first thing she always asks is "when are you going to lower it?" :D

:lol:
I can do you one better... i'm in the laundry room and see a bottle of bleach sitting out, half gone. I ask, "want me to put the bleach back?", she says, "i'm not using bleach anymore, i was saving that half bottle so you can do burnouts"

:wow:

Uh oh
 

I've found that it's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

That will only last so long.... patience is not infinite.

LOL, I tell my don't ask the question, if don't want the answer
