Pushing a button is easier than remembering to grab some hand warmers. Nor do I think you want those taped to the steering wheel.
I'm just saying... buying a truck like one you have to just get a heated steering wheel is kinda crazy. Especially since you already have the ZR2..... There are other vehicles out there that probably would be better that have heated steering wheels, like a JL.
I mean, in a selfish
way, I REALLY want the orange ZR2. I just love the color. I'd be happy buying one and then giving my current truck back at the end of the lease. It's the way I somewhat justify the ridiculousness.
But I think adding a JL to the fleet would be
as well.

When you throw out all logic and make irrational demands, you can get to the thinking pretty easily.

So she didn't like the Saab because
She liked the
SMP because
She didn't like the
but then "loved" the volt because "free charging/drinking" at work +heated wheel
She doesn't like the "volt" because one tire blow out
She likes the ZR2 because "truk"
She doesn't like the ZR2 because no heated wheel
I think you're enabling some of that

No question. The guy ends up with a ZR2, JL and Corvette.....all because of the arbitrary whims of womankind?

Honestly, I don't really want to make any moves. I don't mind driving the Volt at all and since I get free commuting with it,
I like the Blurple
because it's cheap (comparatively) so I'd rather just stay the course. She keeps bringing up this ridiculous heated steering wheel
and not wanting to be in a "low car" or whatever.

Drove the
to work yesterday for the first time in awhile and I have to say that I really love that car. I'm glad I didn't do something stupid like trade it and the Camaro away on the 911.

Honestly, I like the ZR2 better than the JK...we need to drive a JL to compare.
I'd really rather not make any moves, but I know I'm going to get screwed come winter. She "needs" a
with a heated steering wheel. It's so absurd.

Well, I mean...it is

Both are about 2 - 2.5 hours away from me.
Plan is to make it out to Rausch at least once this year.
Might be a bit of a drive for Detroit to come for a wheelin'
up.

The Mid Atlantic Backcountry Discover Route would be 5/7 worth the drive,
