Just Say No to Husband Pimpin' Ride

I realize this post is a little on the personal side, but something very interesting has happened recently to our new vehicle. I was washing dishes when I heard Drew pull into the driveway. I looked out the kitchen door to see the website address he maintains on the roof rack fairing of our car!
There it was in big white stickers, WWW.ADKTRAILRUN.COM ! I thought I was imagining things and blinked a couple times to see if it was really there. I dropped the glass I was washing into the sink as he walked in to greet me. Even before asking him how his day was I said, “No, you didn’t.” Unfortunately, yes…yes, he did. He told me his coworkers liked it. I told him they were being nice.

Since I'm not holding anything back, I find it to be completely obnoxious and loud. This is the equivalent of me putting my blog’s web address on the side of my car and adding yellow and orange flames on the side just to make sure people notice me. A few of our friends own businesses and they tastefully advertise on their vehicles. I have no problem with that because it's their livelihood and it's not my car.

The day we bought the car, my husband had a small sticker that he wanted to put on the vehicle and asked me for my input on placement. I don’t know what happened to my husband that consulted me on stickers for our car two months ago, but I would like him back please. I will give the person I am currently sharing a bed with one week to advertise www.adktrailrun.com on the car and then future advertising will have to be discussed.

P.S. If said husband is reading this, you better take me out for ice cream in your pimped up ride tonight since I'm giving you some free advertising. :)

This may be the first ever blog post about Adirondack "Pimps".

Question: Are there any tax benefits for using your car for blog advertising?
