    It sounds bad but she is just teasing me so an inside joke. I will pat myself on the back and say my choice of car means I am capable of thinking outside the box and making decisions based upon my own priorities.

    Seems the Mirage tends to draw this kind of crowd.

    If you ever have a friend buy a new $40,000+ pickup truck, I would ask to borrow it for a day. I would like to see your wife's reaction to it being parked in the driveway when she comes home.

    My guess is that she appreciate you, teasing & all!

    I was pumping gas in my Mirage today, and another gentleman was doing the same with his nice shiny red Hyundai hatchback. He came over & talked for a bit. People who appreciate the value of small cars seem attracted to others who feel likewise I believe. Total stranger, & we had the nicest chat.

    Maybe pickup truck owners do the same, but I would never know?
