How would I convince the wife I need a Red Eye?

Let Hickster move in fer a weak.

I just want to preface this by saying this is just a thought and probably won’t happen as my logical side says don’t do it. Bringing it up to my wife would be sketchy at best.
I have a 2016 Tor Red Challenger Hellcat I bought new. I’m still crazy about the car. It’s still like new with only 7000 miles. I was goofing around on the Dodge sight and built out a Gomango Challenger Red Eye Widebody and figure I may be able to get one for around what I paid for my 16 which was Sticker around $68,000. I’m pretty sure after discounts I may be able to get the new for about the same. Assuming I could get $50 for my near perfect 2016 that would leave $20,000 I would have to come up with. Then over $4000 for tax. We have the money Ir I could make payments. Trying to convince my wife who I will have to say is my greatest asset would be no small feat. She is frugal to say the least. She is someone who gets mad if I buy her anything for her birthday. All she wants is a nice dinner. All of this is just mental masturbation at this point and probably will never happen. I’m just curious how you guys deal with your better half’s? I know she is right in the long run but car enthusiasts are not logical in our decision making.

Tell her "don't make me choose between the two"

Yea, me or the Hickster. Bring my 5 legged cat. He is the smarter one of the group. He has his own mirror he talks to Oz with. Doesn't smoke a lot of weed, nipster, so want upset the kids, hate that term, kids are baby goats. Children, proper term, but I will supply the papers. Bob, new supply.

Tell her "how bout we convert those closets to garages?" See what she says and report back. If you can.

If they were on the ground floor...I would consider it...

Does that 3 to 2 cars mean you'd trade 2 in?

Do this...if shes like most women..she has a closet full of shoes...show her the closet...gently inquire if she only has two feet...how does she justify all those shoes..then tell her...you have one ass...it deserves two cars...or at the very least...a new one...then off to the dealer

My wife does belong to the one pair a month club. However to her credit most are work shoes and she tends to trow many away. I guess I’m pretty bad too with various work boots, hiking boots Sneakers, slip ons. I have around 17. All pretty much have a function.

I make 90% of the household income so she gets a vote worth 10% when I look at cars. Funny how holding majority stake makes life easier!!

This is how my wife sees it...and she did so on her own even though I tried to involve her. Shes just like: "it's your money"...

...so I bought the hellcat. Lol

 

[ACMAVRO]

My wife told me there was no way in hell I was getting a scat pack. It was hellcat or nothing. Damn I love her!

 

[ChargerChallenger]
