So, it seams as though she would have put 2 and 2 together but she didn't. When she came home from shopping the new SB was sitting in the drive. She didn't talk to me for 2 weeks, not that it was a bad thing. Then she went out and bought her a new toy in my name and with my money. A new 2010 Tundra CrewMax TRD w/every bell and whistle Toyota offered.

Haha that's hilarious...it's why i'm never having a joint account with my wife. lol

yeah i saw it was the "convertible" on the HD site. i had to go look it up when i saw the first pic you posted. i wasn't sure whether you bought a stripped version or if it was even availible stripped.. the mrs likes it also. the "natural" leather looks great fully dressed or stripped down. it's completely different then the norm HD puts out.. i think thats why i fell in love with my FB on first sight.

great choice man..

Proud of you man!! I have been married for 35 years to a wonderfully understanding woman...Not that she had a choice...LOL. Let's see, surprise boats (Oh, those marina bills really get them heated...), international trips..., multiple motorcycles...My last big surprise for my sweetie was my new 08 Rocker! My teenage daughter pulled me into the other room and informed me that "you have really done it this time Dad...LOL...Still here, but I think she has been putting something in my food...LOL. Ride on!
