should i be worried, i let my girlfriend drive my sami in the woods the other day and now she really wants one. When she first saw it she said she thought it was small and "cute" (AHHHHHHH). I wanted to show her what it could do off-road for a long time but my t-case was screwed up. I finally got it fixed and took her out for a tour of some fun easy florida trails and on the beach and she loved it. Then i let her drive (she isnt too good at manuals yet) and now she wants one. I just wanna know if i should be worried at all :)

Is she willing to wrench on it with ya? Does she give you are hard time about spending time with your Zuk or spendin too much money on it? If your answers are YES, NO and NO...you should be jumpin up and down and high fiving yourself!! The same thing happened to my husband...he let me drive... and now the zuk is mine and he has started a new one! which may be an option for you... that way you can build your bigger and better...just a thought.

well i am glad she fits the yess no no answers. :). i really am happy she is in to sami's because she is a wonderful woman and sami's are so much fun and it is great to share that enjoyment with her. She isnt all that good at wrenchin but at least she is willing to learn and get dirty so i know she will get better. I just thought it would be a funny subject about how our counterparts feel about our zooks.That is really cool that you and your husband enjoy somthing so fun together.I really do think it is cool that my girlfriend is into sami's now.She is even tryin to buy sami models for me (which sounds like another fun hobby).

How does everyone elses counterparts feel about your
zook(s)?

i would be happy not many zuk women out there. i took my new girl friend a ride in mine and she didnt like the ride but it was the only my only daily driver. then i took her off road and the bumps and mud was flying, she was a lil scared but thrilled. when we got home she asked when can we go off roading again it was a blast. now when ever i can we get a lil mud on my zuk with both of us in it. i dont know if its the thrill of getting scared or the excitment of the mud flying but its something we can both enjoy at the same time. (ps. we even both wash the zuk, but we wait at leat a day or 2 so we can show it off)

howdy,
i have my sammi MONZUKI and my wife has here own sammi MUDDZUKI. there is nothing to worry about, except when they tell you that they can do something that you can't, and that always leads to fights and maken-up. have fun and get her one of her own.

Thanks fer your time,

Jimmie & MONZUKI

Our trip started when a guy at work said that he had a Samurai and only wanted $800 for it. I figured that we needed a spare car and the Sam would fill the bill just fine. Melissa was not amused,I believe her exact words were "You bought a what!?!?!?".3 days before we finished the inspection I harpooned a K2500 at 40 mph with my Geo Storm,I was racing a pick-up and he pulled out from behind a semi. The Samurai was pressed into immediate service and has never been taken off of first line duty in 2 years, other than for the 3 months for the 1600 16valve swap. Now I have to ask to borrow my truck. The moral of this story is that a Zook girl is a good thing.

Mrs Robzuk says this is definitely a good thing. But make sure that she does help with the wrenching because it's a great way to learn. I helped with every upgrade on MY zuk. Now he has to go get his own.

Never met one that liked or enjoyed to ride in my sami. I dont like the word "marriage" but if i ever find a girl that will ride in my sami without complaining, i think im gonna marry her.

You should consider yourself lucky.

My wife is so happy that I don't want a "new" car, that she doesn't complain about any amount of money I want to spend on my baby. Count your blessings! Women who wheel are a GOOD thing!!!
