Talking Green light

My car is in for a service next week and I mentioned to my wife that it may need some suspension work. Her response was 'Just do whatever needs doing but I prefer you don't tell me about it' Just wondering how far to push it!

As long as she doesn't ask "How much?" you're in good shape

You can tell her the new Big Red brakes and TPC supercharger/intercooler are all part of the suspension package.

What she says and what she actually does are two totally different things I know you won't tell her how much you spend, but she will know and you will be made to know she knows. Best bet is to use un-tracable cash, if you can.

It's a trap. I foresee a remodeled kitchen in your future.

Make sure you both are using the same definition of "suspension". (or hide a spare set of keys)

Default "suspension"

"Suspension" might become part of the fallout from the project.
As in "Suspension of bedroom privileges"

Enjoy the bliss while you can.
