Default The wife or the ute?

I have set my heart on a boat, been meaning to get one ever since we got here.The only way i can do it is either get rid of the wife (cos she cost a fortune) or my ute...So to keep the peace i will have to let the ute go
Its a Ford Courier GL dual cab 4x2 2002,2.6 petrol, air con,ps,tinted windows and only 48000 km,very good condition,(only been using it weekends cos of company car) only $ 16,990
I live in the Joondalup Area (perth)
If you want more info send me a message or email
cheers

Its hard to answer your question.

Perhaps a rear end view of the ute and your wife would help the comparison, without resorting to a test drive comparison. (well you did ask!)

Mate, get rid of the wife - no contest

Look at the enjoyment you'll get from a boat and you'll need the ute to tow the boat!!

Ah, but does he not need someone to clean the boat when he's not out in it?

No worries, once he's got the boat he'll be a f***y magnet.

Whoops, sorry vicar, edited for decency.
