the wife has driven the car 2 or 3 times. no one else has touched it though other than me and her. you have to let her once in a great while. these other guys are trying to respond quick and act tough before their wives walk in the room

happy wife = happy home

If you don't trust your wife with the Evo you shouldn't be married to her !.

I let anyone drive my car... I dont care. Usually when they get back its smiles from ear to ear. Oh.... that was before I changed the stock turbo.

she shows no respect for her own car, not saying she won't, but what make you think she'll respect yours?

my best friend is the only person to drive my car and that's because he drives and evo also. other than that, no one

If you married her then hopefully you trust her enough, even if it comes to letting her drive your car.

why not driver her to work then pick her up?
no reason for your evo to sit in a parking lot at her work

I've let my friends take the Evo in a spirited drive. How can they be 110% jealous and appreciate of the car if they don't drive it? I am with them at the time, but I encourage them to get on it a little. They're my friends, so they're respectful. Besides, cars feel faster while not driving so it makes the car feel faster to me

I am trying to be a good husband and show her that she is more important then the car (which she is). The car kinda became a sore spot when I bought it without really telling her I was and I just show up with a 35k+ car that gets driven once a week if I am lucky. She doesn't work far from the house and I went to best buy and drove past just to see my baby. The car looks so odd out there by itself without me. She is careful with my stuff cause she knows how much it means to me but she has alot of "accidents." Anyway I just needed to tell somebody it is driving me nuts. Plus she did deal with me and didn't say a word when I took her with me to The Dragon in november which is alot for her cause she presses the imaginary brake constantly with regular driving with me.

She shows no respect for her own car man it is going to be a long nite until she gets home.
