La pérdida de la rueda del tractor resultó ser una de los mejores cosas que les pasaron en el matrimonio.

The loss of the tractor's wheel turned out to be one of the best things to happen to their marriage.

Si una de las grandes llantas traseras rompa se rompiera, necesitaría su suegra.

If one of of the big back tires breaks, he would need his mother in law.

Honey, we need to go into town, let's ride the tricycle.

Cariño, tenemos que ir a la ciudad, vamos a montar el triciclo.

Edit: Cariño, tenemos que ir a la ciudad, vamos a coger el triciclo.

Note: For those who do not know. Coger is a word that differs in meaning by region. Adults in Mexico avoid the use of coger for saying to take because the word is a slang term in Latin America. Yahoo answers / coger.

Second edit: For the region I live in, soutern California, near Mexico, the best word to use is manejar, So, for my location, my sentence should read:

Cariño, tenemos que ir a la ciudad, vamos a manejar en el triciclo.

Montar is better used to describe riding of animals, horses, bulls and the like.

Muchísimas gracias por todas las correcciones. smile

Quizás esto es la prueba que tres llantas más una esposa es igual a cuatro llantas (o algo así...)

I guess this is proof that three tires plus one wife is equal to four tires (or something like that..)

Someone once told me that I have a spare tire. They didn't know how correct they were.

Una vez alguien me dijo que tengo una llanta de repuesto. ¡No sabía cómo era correcta cuánta razón tenía!

My wife used to sit on the front until she broke the wheel.

Mi esposa se sentaba en el frente hasta que rompiera la rueda.
