Default DII Stolen...Want Her Back!!!!

....well not really stolen, my wife keeps taking it due to the poor weather we have been getting in the North East.

When I first started driving my DII a couple of years ago, all she did was complain how uncomfortable it was, and it was not very attractive (to square, which I love).

Now everytime there is a friggin snowflake in the air, DII gone!
If fuel were still 4 bucks a gallon, bet she wouldn't take it! LOL
Guess it is just atestiment as to how well our vehicles go through, well, anything!

Regards,

Nick

very simple solution


switch to cut power to the fuel pump, or "borrowing" the distributor cable

Ouch Pilsner, 4am!

My commute is only 4 miles, so the CX7 isnt too bad [X(]

You got lucky, the toyata was taken out!

Solution to your problem, another Disco LOL

Good luck with new vehicle!

Keep only one key to the vehicle in the house. Make sure it won't work for the truck and keep the working one hidden. On a side note, a lock box over the household thermostat will also save a marriage

Love the thermostat quote!
The "complexity" of a digital programable helps

Anything I don't want my darling wife to get I keep in my gun safe. I have loaned my Bronco to my wife three times since I have owned it and she has been involved in a collision every time. Not sure what to say about that really, if not for the last time I wouldn't have bought a a new truck, the Dll
