Yeah, I have a great spouse also.  If she is at home and I am driving the Baja 
or the Porsche, which she can hear coming, the door goes up as I turn in the 
driveway.  I have not tried the horn honking to get it open, not sure I am 
brave enough to try that one.

I'm married to my garage door opener. If she doesn't hear my stock Bus horn, I 
just hit the air horn : )
Someday I need to fix mine...

I dunno; some of us poor folks still raise the garage door the old fashioned 
way.

So my bus is broke then my son wrecks his car now my garage door opener breaks 
with my bus inside.  I had to pull the release to get the garage door open but, 
did not want to push the bus out to look at the opener.  So I got in the bus 
opened the ragtop, stood on the rear seat/bed and was able to access the opener 
through the sunroof.  Pulled the cover and the main gear is striped.  Since I 
am still job challenged(unemployed) I was not looking forward to spending the 
cash on a new opener.  I however found the parts to fix the opener on 
Searspartsdirect.com for $29.95.  Yea me!

It's a shame people don't fix stuff anymore.  Most of the time I find it's a 
really inexpensive part that needs replacing.  The problem is finding said part.
