Might be Christmas present for the Jeep next year. She got way too much this year.
Sounds like mine. Even spread over the last 5 years my Jeep got a lot
Mine got a new motor and a new rear axle and a warn 8274
I'm not sure I would know what "too much" is.
Motor 3,100 bucks rear axle 1,100 (long story) warn 8274 2,900 bucks.
You guys are like down payments for me.
My wife has her hobby of sewing/quilting/knitting and the Jeep is mine. She did make some comments about me spending money on a new Crate engine and other stuff just before she asked to spend about $50K on a new "sewing studio" (room addition to the house with a storage loft, shelving, floor outlets, furniture, and other goodies for her to play with). So it did feel a bit like being held hostage to agree due to what I spend on the Jeep. On the other hand, I don't complain about the costs of her hobby (material, thread, yarn, patterns, and time spent) and she doesn't complain about my hobby. So a win-win.
Worth every penny to get her sewing and craft stuff off the dining room table and out of the two bedrooms she was occupying. Now we have our guest room back and I have a home office again. We're empty nesters and even with 5 bedrooms her stuff was burying us. 900 sq ft of new space and she has that full. But I did tell her that no matter how much she accumulates, it all has to stay in her new room - and she can't gripe about my Jeep spending.
I’m pretty lucky in that dept also. She has stuff around the house and I have the garage for my Jeep, and she has been pretty understanding about the spending on it. 50 on a garage would be pretty cool also, but that probably would not go over as well. 
good in the Jeep. Must be the fresh air.
