my inner cheapskate, and got to thikning. Since Christmas is fast approaching, would I be wrong to ask Santa Claus (mom and dad, grandparents, aunts, and uncles) for the mods I want to put on my truck? I promise to ask them for the lower cost items.

 

heck no it aint worng im askin for a set of lightning tails myself

 

I'm asking for a hood and rollpan

 

Well, you gotta ask yourself two questions....

Would they rather get you something you really want, or something they want to get for you?

and do you want to get what you really want, or what they want to get for you???

Yeah, I know what answer you came up with....

 

No theres nothing wrong with it. I am a dad and my 14 year old daughter lives with me (I have custody) on Christmas I get her a few small things for Christmas and then money. Some people think that is cheap, or not wanting to take the time to find things for her. That is so wrong. First she is a teenager and I have no idea (basically) of the things she likes. She loves and I mean LOVES clothes. She loves the idea about getting cash and then being able to go buy just what she wants.

I would much rather see her get what she really likes rather then wasting $200, $300 or $400 on alot of things that would end up in a closet for 9 months only to see go to Goodwill before next Christmas.

 

01 XLT Sport,

The key question is, do you go with her when she spends your gift money... that's the gift of giving.....?

 

jryager:

Yes, I go with her and actually we have a great time. I am not into shopping, at least not clothes shopping, but when we do especially after Christmas it is a lot of fun, especially watching her compare prices and getting the best deal she can

It's funny how kids when spending their own money on things look for the good deals, compared to when they need something during the year (with someone elses money) and you look at the price, and they say "that's not so bad"

 

im asking for some long tube headers and a new clutch disk! ill be happy if i get one of the two

 

Good for you!!..

 

I want a pioneer cd player for christmas. (Pioneer Premier DEH-P740MP MP3 Player) for 250 dollars it is a deal. Plus it will give me something to mess around with while college is out for christmas.

 

I basically pic out my gifts and it works great. Everyone gets what they want or need and everyone is happy. This year, I get a digital camera.

 

lol, thats cool. i wish my household worked like that!

 

I just talked to mom and dad, and my "wish list" is in cirrculation. I can't wait to see if I have boxes under the tree with Edelbrock, Air Force 1, and Bilstien stamped on the side.

 

I'm asking for a flowmaster system for my truck but i dont think i'll be getting that. seeing as how i'm going skiing in Jan.

 

well santa id like a diablo computer chip and a set of 4.10 rear end gears please
