brandonozz 168 #11 Posted December 24, 2014 The difference between your wife and my wife. Your wife buys you a Wheel Horse for Christmas. My wife makes fun of me for having too many horses and spending so much time on a garden tractor forum. LOL! Seriously though, it's all in good fun and she is just razzing me for the most part - other than when she can't get her car in the garage! And so you don't feel left out, she makes fun of all you other Wheel Horse nuts (addicts) as well! P.S. One last thing Tristan, better hang on to that one! While mine will "let me do my thing" and keep a smile on her face..... SHE ISN'T GOING TO GO OUT AND GET ME ONE! Merry Christmas Everyone 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
