Default Best girlfriend ever!!!

So I am parking my Rover at my girlfriends place this weekend and this is an email she sent me:

"Awesome...maybe I'll go off-roading tomorrow night and all day Saturday. What do I need to air down the tires to in PSI? And how do you disconnect the sway bar again?...and and what do I do to lock the hubs?"

How awesome is that? She has been wheeling with me, but I had no idea she learned so much! Man she rocks!

That is funny stuff... I let my girl take the rover out on the beach and she took off for hour.. would come by now and then going mach 2 with her hair on fire, stero blaring... offroading is in everyone.. you just have to be bit by the bug..

good luck deciding on who drives next adventure...

I am in the same boat! My girl loves it, yet she is still timid to actually driving offroad! The one time she drove my rover(offroad that is), I was in my dad's jeep!

That's awsome about your girl!

Since I haven't really had anywhere else to brag about this, I assumed this would be the place...

My soon to be Bride, all on her own with no cohersing, decided she wanted to sell her '05 Corolla, and buy a '95 RRC....
For the good of our family...
Now that's what I consider a hell of a woman!!!
So as of next week, we'll be taking delievery of a great condition '95 LWB...

We typically carpool in my P38 anyways, that will just be our run around and grocery getter.
