My wife has a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Willys, and a 2023 Mustang GT Premium with 6-speed. Her previous cars include a 2011 GTCS and a 2001 GT, both manual.

My wife loves my race car, but has no desire to own a performance vehicle. Her DD is a 19' Suburban. She works from home so she does not have to do a lot of driving. She only put about 3,500 miles on it in the last year.

I've yet to find my future ex-wife. Whole damn house is mine, sadly only an oversized 2 car with thin concrete (no lift). My last ex longterm girl had a Focus.

Wife drives an Edge Titanium. She is cheap as hell and hates to make car payments. She would drive something real nice if someone else paid for it. But it can't be too big, too fast, too high, too low,..... hence my answer to the poll - why she out da kitchen?

My wife has always like cars but I wouldn’t have called her an enthusiast. In 2005 she said if she could have any car it would be a NSX, CTSV or M3 so that Christmas I bought her a lightly used 2004 M3 6MT ( I should’ve bought a NSX ) and she’s been hooked since then

In 2006 I would come home to huge boxes of car shit that she ordered, by 2007 she was at thunder hill raceway getting driving lesson and spent all her free time at the track ( probably 20 or so visits a year).

Fast forward to today and the love for cars is the same but more grown up meaning she still wants something fun to drive but not completely performance oriented. She went from daily driving big SUV for the last 15 years to now that my oldest is driving his own car she is back in a sedan. The plan is to be in an RS6 by next year if dealers will chill with the 30k-50k ADMs

My wife likes sports cars but she doesn't know how to drive manual so that eliminates a lot. But we're expecting so only suv's will be in our future
I hear ya! I got my wife a POS 3rd gen right after we got married in '99 for her to learn what the clutch pedal does.
I gave it a garage paint job so she wasn't quite as embarrassed, it was three colors when we got it.(carbed 305, 5sp, 3.73 open rear)

After that she had an '86 T/A 305tpi/5sp, '00 Mustang GT/5sp, '11 Mustang V6/6sp and now '17 Focus RS.
Surprisingly her favorite car was the '00 New Edge, but she likes the Focus too.
Her winter daily is '21 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk V6.
We traded in a '14 Cherokee TH with 1.5" lift, 265/65/17 BFG's & 0.75" Bora wheel spacers.
Its kind of funny...I wasn't going to mod this Cherokee...but after her friends kept asking her "what happened to the beefy tires on your jeep"(Its the same color as the last one, so none of them realized it was a different car...LOL) she insisted I set this one up like the last one.

I always told her I’d try to find something to rent to reach teach her but she’s not really into it

My wife just bought a 2024 Toyota Camry XSE yesterday. It replaced her 2021 Acura TLX.

Born and raised Brockton. Living in Naples.
She drives a 2024 Volvo XC90 down here and a 2020 Mazda CX9 up in Masshole.

I offered to trade my 2014 Shelby in since I don’t drive it at all and get her a 2024 Mustang GT vert in automatic but she says no way. Hates the new body style. So looks like we are keeping the garage queen for now.

Says she’s going to wait and trade it in on a MB SL550.

Don’t really care what she does tbh.

With current prices and Apr they didn’t give us enough for another Durango so we’re suing.

Sorry to hear about your issues Hudson. Glad you are taking legal action. I cannot tell you how badly I despise insurance companies and thoroughly enjoy when someone sticks it to them.
