Ok, this is wayyyy OT but....I would like ya'll's opinions, I really have no one here to ask & I am stuck.... Those who know us know that Mike REALLY spoils me. I am blessed to have him in my life & not just for material things. He completes me, if I ever doubted my love for him, this deployment has set me straight. I feel soooo much better with him home (the physical problems are still here, but my heart feels WHOLE!) Mike has decided I need another new vehicle (We will be married 4 years on June 10th & it will be my 4th vehicle, I have come to accept my vehicle will NEVER be paid off!) His truck will be paid for this year & this will be the only major payment we will have. He will be retired in a year or so & so far the plan is for him to work for Rolls Royce. I would like your opinions on the 2 vehicles he has narrowed it down to. Granted neither one is good on gas mileage, but that is not the issue (I know it should be, but he likes his toys & works hard, so we will begrudge him this). To me, it is down to the looks issue. The Nitro is all about comfort & style, the Sahara is all about being rugged, with a little less style, but will last forever! Both come with lifetime warranties on the engines, yes, you read that right....lifetime! Pretty cool, huh? Plus both Dodge & Jeep have pretty good resale values. Please understand I always had to "do the best I could with what I had". I raised my kids on a pretty small income & have never been able to get what I "wanted", I had to get what I could afford & this is all still so new to me. I also realize this isn't "important in the grand scheme of things, it's just important to me. My Daddy doesn't have the internet or I would be asking his opinion, I will still ask him but without visual references, it won't be the same. He can still tell me his opinion between Dodge & Jeep, then he will get sidetracked about something totally off the wall! Gotta love him! haha http://www.dodge.com/en/2008/nitro/models/rt/index.html   in sunburst orange   http://www.jeep.com/en/2008/wrangler_unlimited/models/sahara /index.html   in rescue green Thanks ya'll for being my "surrogate family".

Get down on your knees every day and thank God for that man.  He may spoil you rotten with toys that are never paid off but you have a man that takes care of his family! Get the orange ride. It looks more like Bonnie

Thanks Gwen. I do thank God for him....daily! He takes care of us in ever way! He says he feels honored to spoil me, little does he know I am honored just to have him love me! My son is chomping at the bit for the orange one! lol! From reviews online, it may be the better vehicle, too! Thanks
