I got vetoed..
 

The wife decided to go with the gas stainless steel oven... it's really cool though, but now I feel like i have to go with the stainless steel fridge.. although that won't be for a couple months at least.

you can't just mix appliances, my mom always told my dad - everything must match. "you don't want our house to look like a frat house, do you?" i think my dad wanted whatever was cheapest and functional.
