Just thought I’d share ‘cause I was laughing my ass off. This morning I was in the house getting some work done when my girlfriend walks in, takes a deep sigh, looks at me with concerned eyes, and said “Josh, I think my car needs new shocks and ruts.” I tried my best not to laugh...at least I tried.

Every time I talk to my wife about vehicle maintenance her eyes glaze over and she wanders off. At least your girlfriend is proactive with identifying issues.

You may need new shocks because of ruts...

I think it causes my wife physical harm to contemplate that state of our vehicles.

Me: “The Pilot needs like $2,500 of work done to it”

Wife: “Like, when tho?”

Me: “Now - leaking transmission lines, front struts, radiator hoses, etc”

Wife: “But, we can still drive it right?”

Me: “Nope”

Wife: “But what if I drive it to work instead of you?”

Me: *weeps*

Why do you capitalize every single word?

And I trust you sent her a link to the Koni website? I really think she needs a new set of wheels and tires too. And maybe a Borla catback exhaust kit for good measure.

tell her to get one of these calls and the ruts come to you.

This was my first thought. She has a Pontiac G6 GTP coupe, so I think she could actually get away with an exhaust. I like her wheels as is though, alloy 5-spoke 18s.
