I feel the same way, but I have a crew cab truck. Funny thing is, my wife hates driving my truck so she hauls our 2 kids around in her Firehawk most the time.

I got lucky with mine..it's a 1999 GMC Sierra 5.3l Ext Cab. It's got the 3-door..1999 only had this, the passengers side door is the one that opens up like suicide style so you can get into the back. I guess when I get a wife n kid I have a good excuse to why I don't have to get the kid out every time..

She doesn't want her car to turn into what mine has become . Luckily, she lets me dump **** tons of money into mine without a lot of fuss, but I don't do mods until I have the cash to cover them so that helps. I actually bought her the Firehawk because I felt guilty about all the cash that goes into my Camaro and I thought she deserved to have some fun too .
