You know when ...

[RHClarke]

Wow! At times, my better 3/4s seems miffed at the attention I pay to my truck's needs. She personified my HUP by calling it my "Metal Mistress". She laments the "quality time" I spend with her, er, it...and really does not like it when I come home dosed in
the mistress's "perfume".

Is there a CMP appreciation school for the "Y chromosome" challenged? Or have your women seen the light, knowing that their men can usually be found toiling away in the shop on their project vehicles?

I tell my wife that the time spent with my HUP keeps me out of the pubs (less Gracies calls), keeps me from chasing women (getting too old to catch them anyway), and away from the golf course.

Any tips on "swaying" the fairer sex on the merits of the hobby would be greatly appreciated (I tried bribery, but the costs keep going up).
