Why would you say that, after writing your posts? You need to revisit DR and your posts.

I was pretty protective of it as well, but somewhere along the way, I stopped caring so much about inanimate objects and decided people and animals were more important.
Wait, he has an income of $120,000 and this is the first nice thing he's ever had?

Dave Ramsey would approve.

On paper, it's her truck. He's the one paying for it.

You shouldn’t have let your daughter drive because you lent yours out and she needed the practice. You aren’t married yet so it isn’t yours to make that decision. Since marriage is much more complex than this one incident, then your marriage will never survive if you can’t work this out. But now he has to trust your judgement. That could be tough. If you don’t see his side, he may be worried that you will always side with her and he will be the odd man out. Good luck.

Man! If I had this much drama in just about every aspect of my life, I’d be too exhausted to post about it.

I think OP is a master-level troll (or filming a new "reality" show). No way this is real life.

Earlier in the thread, it was noted that this was a $60K vehicle, and was half of his annual income.
