I thought that was an add for Bmw's massage seats at first.

I don't win much in my relationship with my wife but the garage has always been mine. My argument was that I actually cared about my cars and the condition they were in. She didn't have a garage spot until we bought our own house.
I decided that would never happen again, so we bought a house with a 4.5 car attached garage and a 2400sqft shed.

Plus she won't let you get any other toys so that means you can't fill the spots=P
Sadly, very true.

I've learned be careful setting expectations. My wife has said you should have just gotten me a minivan after we bought the Volvo wagon, then she actually drove a minivan, a Toyota Sienna, and said "why is it so slow?". I'm not sure she realizes that most of the Volvo wagons have 2/3 or less power than hers...

You don't have a glove box fuel pump?

"dude it smells like your car is leaking gas"

"no thats just the permanent smell of my glovebox from storing fuel pumps in it" He yells over the whine of the soon to fail pump
Fixed?

Tools are different. I carry a pretty good set: sockets, wrenches, pliers, vise grips, screw drivers, tow strap, jumper cables, etc. Plus carhart bibs and jacket in the winter, rain jacket most of the year... Like JC said, as long as you have it, you'll never need it.

Never heard the pump whining, but I had a weird intermittent thing where the engine would loose power for a couple seconds, and the continue running normally. Has been happening maybe once a month or so since I bought the car. During the summer I had some hard starts that seemed to be caused by overly rich mixture(?). Also had a CEL the entire time, which went away after replacing the O2 sensor near the end of summer. A week before the pump failed I had a few random hard starts where it took maybe 30 seconds of cranking before the engine finally started normally and ran perfectly normally like nothing was wrong... I probably have some other issue (maybe coolant sensor?) besides just the fuel pump, but such is the high-mileage life...
