Nice deal, price is right....But I don't think the tunnelram is a tr2x..Looks more like an Offenfauser..Maybe wrong though...BTW..I know a few people that have survived gun shot wounds, The question is..How bad do you want the boat & How Lucky do you feel......

When it comes to those kinds of toys that's something that I just kinda show up with. Hey babe, look what I've got. :D
BTW, I've never showed her how to load the gun!

[Her454]

BUY IT. Trust me, she'll get over it....sooner or later. wink

[Hud]

Dave, the gears are on there way!

[HavasuDreamin']

You guys are funny. :D SD, I think I will take your approach and just show up with it when the time is right. :) Unfortunately for me, right now not even I can justify having two non-practical boats especially since I won't store any boat out doors.
When buying a home last year, I tried to convince my wife that we needed a 10,000 SF shop with an apartment above :rolleyes: , but for some reason, she just wouldn't buy into it. :confused:

[Sangster]

I use Dave's method of thinkin too..It shows Character...

BTW WIfes are over rated and boats never lose thier looks wink

D Nice. :D I consider myself fortunate that I have a 30' deep third bay. :) Unfortunately, I don't think it would work reall well cramming the Sanger in there along with my 19' Daytona. The other two bays are 20' deep at most. :(
Back to the topic,..........that is an awesome boat. I have always wanted a Sanger Bubbledeck Runner Bottom. smile_sp

So you gonna fly out to Needles and test drive it??

[wsuwrhr]

I agree with Dave, just show up with it, and LIE about the price. If she doesn't like it, just think, you still have a nice boat....

Exactly. I always cut the price of a part by 50%, only tell her about 1/3 of the parts I buy, and whenever I have side work I cut the pay by around 65%. I'm building a spare bullet right now and told her that I already have absolutely everything I need. I just need to get around to assembling it. wink

Boat Racer Rule #13 ..... Never post anything on a Forum you don't want your wife to know !!! Wives seem to have contacts everywhere !!
And if Mrs ss13 is listening somehow.... those new pistons in the garage are for Tommy's motor. Really !!!
