Backing out of contract?

[Jaycar85]

in texas there is no "no cool down period" unless u sign paper work off site (dealer ship) but if you have not taken delivery aka not drove it off the lot then it is not a deal yet even if he signed the paper work that is the way it is for cars pretty shr its the same for quads just do not pick the quad up as soon as it is off thr property it is his.

If the wife is serious about her threat, I would question her commitment. I mean seriously the dude screwed up by not at least talking to his wife before purchasing but threatening to end a marriage over it is way over the top.

I agree... you shouldnt threaten divorce EVER unless you mean it. Its not a tool to get your own way.

What kind of idiot would make a purchase like that without asking his wife?

That was my first question. He said, " I knew she would say no. I just didn't think she would take me telling her I already bought it that badly. "

Smooth move exlax.

I take it your buddy has a history of spending money without discussing with his wife.

Yes, never seen a purchase this big though. Usually it's guns.

That's what I'm thinking. Gotta feed the family before making toy purchases.

There is where his problem is at. He makes plenty of money. She makes plenty of money. They don't have any kids. She just has a tough time justifying "extra" things like this. Which I can understand. My wife is the same way. But, she pretty much gives me free reign to do as I please on this sort of stuff.

I would not make a major purchase without consulting my wife, but being threatened with divorce is kind of out there. I would have to look deep into that relationship, it sounds like someone is trying to be very controlling, and if your buddy is buying a four wheeler and not able to pay every day bills, he needs to grow up a little also

Just saw your last post, If the money is there, sounds like she just wants to be the boss, but on the other hand, saving for a rainy day is not a bad thing.

I guess I am seeing good and bad on both sides of this. Somebody else make up my mind for me

Thats a trick question, lol

[Stick-Launcher]

That is a bad deal all around. Hopefully the deal is not complete because he has not taken the quad...

The way I see it the problem is (1) he was scared to talk to her about it (2) he made a major purchase without talking to her about it and (3) she threatened to make him choose between it or her.

I see multiple underlying issues here.
