Problems with the In-Laws

Just got married and my wife's dad is talking crap about how his 96xlt 600 triple can outrun my 800rev.... I keep trying to get him to go up but he won't.. He came over today and started bashing my chevys and my Doo... WTF... Does anyone have this problems too? I am about ready to kick his old butt..:beer;:beer;:beer;

Take him to the base of a steep climb(after the snow settles out, of course!), point at the top and just grin :D Don't do this right now with the conditions being so unstable ... your wife would never forgive ya! He's got a point about the Chevrolet though ... j/k
 
They may very well be close in a race on the trail,but tell him your sled was built for powder and you will take him on any time in the deep and steep. Then tell him to put up or shut up. Anyone can talk smack if they do not have the balls to back it up. Edit if the trail is bumpy, take him on and kick his a$$. Modern tech has it's advantages. Just don't kill him, she will not forgive you.
 
next time he starts hackin on ya just change the subject to lets say pipin his daughter. Don't be crude or anything but just coyly tell him how great his daughter is in the sack or how loud she is or probably the best is how she just loves to play your skin flute in the car,elevator or whatever. Trust me a Dad never wants to hear that shat about his little girl. The trick is to not over due it. Just enough so he realizes that if he talks smack he's gonna hear about the crack.
 
Personally I have two girls One 3 and the other 1 1/2 months. I am waiting for the day they start bringing guys home.NOT REALLY! I will torment them and scare them ****less. If I guy said my girl was good in the sack, he wouldn't look the same when he left. Granted, I was the little ****er who messed with the girlfriends parents. I like the idea off putting the pops in front of a hill. PUT UP OR SHUT UP!. Even if he doesn't say anything you know you won. :face-icon-small-win
 
Naw man just agree with him, He's hurting a bit inside and directing it at your stuff. On some level he lost a daughter, who needs or wants you more than him.

let him have his battle, whats the big deal with winning the argument. Just agree and let him brag, then point out the cool things of his sled, and be excited to go riding sometime. He'll get over it. dont forget to ask for pointers he may actually teach you something. let the old lion roar a bit; someday it will be you, needing to win a battle.

without a doubt, he knows your sled will kick the XLTs ***, its not about that.

as for the Ford/chev/dodge bu11$h1t, they are all POS's. the brand loyalty crap is what lets them stay in business longer than they should be. we are just limited to what crap they want to feed us. Just my .02

let him bash everything that you have them turn and look at him and tell him all your stuff might be junk but one thing you have his daughter. see what he has to say to that if thats junk to!!!!!
 
Be the bigger man.
Be humble, gracious and helpful. Those who boast eat humble pie. It is better to be on the front end of a long rope.

At least you have something to talk about. My inlaws hate my sleds, motorcycles, boats, atvs, everything. They think it is all a waste of money.

I would love to talk smack with my father in law about sleds. Just talk smack back, he probably dreams about the good old riding days but cannot ride like he did when he was young and smack talk is all he has left.

Let him enjoy his smack talk.
 
The old lady is mad... I just called her dad a p###y for not wanting to go up. It just gets old hearing someone brag about how much better his stuff is than yours......"spomey" you are right I guess I'll just let him flop his lips out in the air..... I guess I could take him up to cooke and find a creek bottom and leave him.....:D:D

Just give your wife 1/2 of everything and move out of your house now. If not you keep that crap up her dad will lend her the money for a better lawyer and she will take everything. I almost canceled my wedding for this exact same thing. EXACT



I think fathers are in competition with all son-in-laws. I wish we could get a preview of what we are like as fathers. How will we handle knowing this kid is deflowering our daughter. My father-in-law and I get along pretty good now. He says Dodge sucks I say I know but your daughter is more important than a new truck. I wish I could talk aftermarket with him but everything is "not needed". When he tells stories of his hot rod stuff I smile and translate it to sleds. After he took a ride in my Dodge he hopped up his Ford. Not needed...hmmmmm
I have been married more than once. Pissed of inlaws usually mean bad times at home. Just ask yourself if your wife is worth more than some petty ego trip with her father.

You are obviously not a father of a daughter. Bring my daughter home and say something like that and you wont worry about me anymore. Not picking a fight here but this would not help your situation at all. My 5 cents worth
 
tell him u sure hope this marraige works out. u'd feel real bad kickin her out. u'd be fair though. u'd give her everything back she came to the relationship with. a half bottle of lemon gin, a thong, and 10 bucks in her pocket. i seen this once. buddys father in law didn't talk to anybody the rest of the afternoon. that'l get him off ur back for a bit.

This by far is the best answer. I don't care what anyone has to say this is the best comeback and it will either shut him up or he will swing on you and then you can kick his a$$
 
Did I realy just read all that sh!t.Take him riding and let him ride your sled he will see and shut up.

I would have to put my money on the XLT if the race is on a flat road with packed snow, I rode one a few years ago and it was the only sled I have ever owned that would clock 100 MPH. My 800 rev only clocks @ 85MPH, however once you get to the powder or hills there is no way the XLT will keep up. As far as bashing your Chevy's, I would offer to let him purchase something else for his daughter to ride in and drive, chances he will not mention it again.
 
if your wife is an only child and he has alot of money dont friggin argue tell him he's rite and let him win all the time!!, if he's broke stick it to him!
