Default Help Convince My Wife!

Hey Guys! I NEED your help, Somehow my wife doesn't understand the importance of me getting a new '03 Yamaha Grizzly 660. I constantly hear "You don't NEED a new fourwheeler....you've got one (95 2wd Big Bear) ....we could use that money on the house....lets go on vacation instead....ect. Come on, I need help how'd you guys sway your significant other and make them realize how important these occational "upgrades" we all need. I'm sure that I'm probably gonna get flamed by some of you ("Get some ***** and just TELL her your getting a new 'wheeler!") but, a bunch of you are in or have been in my position.

I feel your pain...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I told my wife if I got a Raptor, I would get her one too. I got the Raptor...and she ended up with a Warrior. Long story short...its pretty hard for me to keep up with that Raptor...LOL. So to get my Rappy back, I'm selling the Warrior and allready bought her her own Rappy. If you buy my Warrior for her, I'm sure she'll let you have your new Grizzly!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Good Luck!!

You need to get HER involved in riding too.

Then when SHE enjoys the sport, she will have no problem spending money on the right along with you![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

POUT , POUT , AND POUT MORE
1 ) When she is around you make sure you are all ways looking at a quad mag

2) Go to the dealer grab as many brosures as you can , hang one in the garage (in front of her parking spot )

3) When she asks why your pouting , just say " I really want that quad" and leave it at that

4) In bed before you go to sleep talk about the reviews you been reading

5) Asure her that if you get a new quad there is going to have to be alot of sacrafices (on your part , not hers ...lol)

I had to pay off my car , quit smoking , and only go riding when she says I can .
( eventho I have been riding every weekend since I bought it )
She did go with us once and she feel in love with it , thats when the add ons begun.
Now I have more assesories then a Honda Accord

Fst4Wrd - Great advise I'm gonna try some of those. I checked your pictures, I looks like you have a new addition to the riding team. My son just turned 3 months old and I can't wait till he wants to go riding with Daddy!

NO WAY my son's name is Dylan also. My godson just got a new 90 Polaris sportsman in Yellow. It matches his dad's new yellow 500HO Sportsman. My buddy and I have it all figured out by the time Dylan is ready to ride, My godson will be ready for a bigger bike. I'm sure it'll be a great handmedown. My Buddy getting a new ride just makes me want a new bike even more!
