Couldn't help myself...New Spartan
As I was walking out the door my girlfriend asked (with one hand on her hip) if I was going to buy it...and I said I was sure I wasn't....
Well, I got one look at it and couldn't help it...
She's in amazing shape for her age, no real pitting, no panels that need replacing, everything still inside to make replicas of...a dream...
Now the only question...how do I tell my girlfriend??

Don't tell - it will be alright. She will never know. I'm sure you will be fine.
I keep telling myself that stuff on the way home. Never works out the way I plan.
How is the couch tonight?

For her:
Flowers, Chocolates, bottle of Champagne, a kiss, a few hundred "I love you more than the trailer baby", an apology...
For you:
A blow up mattress
A sleeping bag
and the hope there isn't actually a dog house for you to sleep in.

When I first read your thread where you said "She's in amazing shape for her age" I thought; How old is the girl friend? Then I realized you must be talking about the Spartan. LOL

Yeah, uh, and doubtful there's any pitting on her "bumpers", either.

Great ideas. I think I'll go with a big red bow on it and yell Merry Christmas!!! And then I'll give her her other present...a brand new sawsaw!

That is one sweet skin! (uh, talking about the trayla here) but it looks like you are missing one of the front wraparound windows.
Where the dickens do you get those these days!?
