Re: Ways to persuade your other half for a new Prado accessory
Maybe we need to learn more "woman" speak.
Refer to tyres as "shoes" ($300 for a shoe is very reasonable, and you can never have too many for different outings)
A snorkel is just eyeliner for the windscreen
We just have to "accessorise"
Does my bum look big in these seatcovers?
Dual batteries means we can always use the hairdryer no matter where we are
Spots lights are "bling"
Raised skirts are "in" this year[color=#000080][b]Stephen[/b][/color]

Re: Ways to persuade your other half for a new Prado accessory
hi,
I do not smoke, do not drink, do not gamble.
Pretty boring life by some, so the prado comes into the
equation to make life ineteresting...(offroading, camping,secluded beaches,away from the crowds...fro these
we ned the prado....not just for me but for the whole family.
This is my formula:
non smoker = 12 a packx7x52 = $4368.00
non drinker = 30 for alcohol x 52 = $1560.00
non gambler = 50 average gamblig x 52 = 2600.00
TOTAL = $8528.00 saving towards family's budget.
But a man needs an addiction. THE PRADO.
SO my arguement is pretty strong when it comes to some mods (logical ofcourse)
That is my method and so far so good........Comment

Re: Ways to persuade your other half for a new Prado accessory
Case I used on the missus for the lift:
Me: <looking underneath the car all serious> "I noticed the suspension was looking a bit sagged this morning hun..."
Missus: "Oh yeah"
Me: "...must be the k's we did on the car and the fact that it has the bullbar and all the other accessories that has fatigued them over time"
Missus: "So what does that mean?"
Me: "Might have to take it to ARB and see if they need replacing."
Missus: "Ok, you take the car there often, they seem to know what they are doing"
Me: "Yeah they do, I'll make a booking some time this week"
Missus: "Ok"
Now to find a good reason why it seems harder to jump into the Prado when the lift gets done!2014 Toyota Prado 150 D4D Auto (facelift); ARB Deluxe Bullbar; OME 2" Lift; Rhino Pioneer Platform Rack; Redarc BCDC 1225 with Optima Yellow Top; BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2; Lightforce Genuine Custom 70w HID; GME UHF; Safari Snorkel; Rigid Industry SR-Q2 side lights (yet to be installed); Domin8or winch (yet to be installed)Comment

Re: Ways to persuade your other half for a new Prado accessory
She says "Do we need it ?"
I say "Well it's cheap insurance"
She says " can it wait?
I say " You know our luck, if we dont get it we will be sorry"
She says "maybe next pay"
