Default Indy show the best thing for my wife !

The wife and daughter are here at the show with me . My wife was kinda on the fence about this new hobby of mine and rolled her eyes when I said I bought another truck a couple weeks ago. Now, it's day 2 at the show and she is so impressed and loves what she see's that she wants a truck too! So I asked if she wants a Pete or KW , what kind of things she would like on it, etc. We went over to see Ric from PMD got her all the stuff she wanted. Hats off to Ric , who was very helpful and generous to her and her choices! So, looks like " King of Bling " is going to have a mate....not sure what to call her rig yet.... Queen of bling ? Or black beauty? ( she wants it in black ) . Anyway, what a great show , great people and well worth the 20 hr round trip drive!

Mario

That's really awesome that she 's joining in!

It was a pleasure meeting you (and your wife and daughter) and sharing the pit area. We'll expect to see the entire fleet next year!!

It was a build idea for my writes truck if she wanted one. But she doesn't. So I thought I'd share the idea. It is a really cool rig I have more pictures if anyone needs them

We can work on her Shawn but I know what she'll probably say at this point..I'm the mom of 2 small children, a wife, homemaker..where would you expect me to find the time...lol..That's what I would've said 10yrs ago, but my kids are at an age where I'm just mom..Now it's my time. But we can try....Bring her to Indy next year I bet you can all by yourself...Clifford was great but Indy did it for me....

Well, my wife Susan has found the look she wants for her new rig. We both saw it in person in June at a truck show in Clifford Ontario. It was our first RC meet, she didnt have the bug yet but when you see a rig like this ya just gotta say WOW this truck is a daily driver by the way.
So once she got the bug and a truck of her own she spent days figuring out what she wants it to look like and one day came to me with laptop in hand and said.... " Honey, this is what I want my truck to look like, but in black , and the trailer too " .....

So here it is.... Mama Sue's inspiration..............







Check out the reflection of other trucks on the trailer Very sweet...Very, very clean n shiny.




thanks for looking Keep on trucking!!
