The wife just called me a grumpy old man - Page 4 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

if its just a car why did you buy a gas guzzling over powered expensive 2 door that needs tires every 40,000 miles with blind spots. You could have bought a responsible 4 door prius and got 60mpg.
I guess im lucky. everyone iv let in the car had the respect to no have to be told anything more than to pick your feet up over the rockers. I tell them that befor they even open the doors. Most Camaro owners cant afford or want too to just replace stuff other people wreck. If we could we would have bought a Vette.

The picking of tooth, nails, ears really pisses me off. I told my friend to not touch anything till I handed him the hand sanitizer the other day.

Don't even 'tap' the car with your hard 'acrylic' fingernails (I had to tell the wife that one as I just installed a newly painted ZL1 trunk lid and spoiler -- her look was priceless)...

No dogs ,cats ,or children .No smoking ,drinking or eating. No brushing or combing your hair. Do not pick your ears ,teeth ,nails or any other parts of your body LOL. Basically just sit there and enjoy the ride . Holy Cow she maybe right.

Good for you, heh, I have the same fan rules in my car.

"...and close the passenger door gently!"

ssrs2lt · 03-26-2015, 06:09 PM

Yeah gotta respect the machine! I'm same way with even door slam

Ace0751 · 03-26-2015, 06:24 PM

OK where is the passenger rules thread we need to bring that back lol it's starting to sound like that again. Some of these comments are to funny. Sounds like must of us need a law to be passed before they get in.

JCunningham · 03-26-2015, 06:33 PM

we need a dash sticker. I have this one on my sun visor

rontammy0 · 03-26-2015, 07:36 PM

Keep your rules fellas....just make sure the car is clean when you sell it to give half to your exwife. I have 1 simple rule.....no dirty shoes. My wife can drink her coke...and brush her hair if we are going somewhere. We only have eaten in the car a couple of times because we were running late for something. I have been with my wife for almost 26 years....so i think im doing something right. I dont give my wife rules....she just gets it.

You really know you are a grumpy old man when you find yourself yelling at the neighborhood kids to get off your lawn.

And if she is bare foot, she must wear shower slippers, that I have tucked in my console. Size 6, nothing any bigger.
