I had my Geo in storage for over two years due to a bad engine. This fall I rebuilt it and had tremendous help from this forum. But anyways me and my girlfriend have been dating for two years and now that I got this car running she refuses to ride in it. I figured I would share this and see if any other guys here had the same problem sorry wasnt sure where to post this topic. But I appreciate all comments from all you other Geo owners. If it comes down to it she will go before the Geo. |

My girlfriend loves mine. However if yours refuses, let her drive her own vehicle and pay all the gas. |

My wife balked at first, that was until she realized the money saved from driving it. Just tell her, look, either you get in my geo or I am going to find me a reasonable woman. |

. My wife has ridden in mine three times. She doesn't feel comfortable in it. But, it's because she is on the left side, close to oncoming traffic and not in control of the car.... . |

If just my wife and I go somewhere we take the Metro. 40 mpg vs 17 for her car, if the boys go with us we take her car. The boys are both special needs and are 21 and 25 and I don't have a back seat in my car. |

My GF didn't like my metro either until I tinted the windows limo dark and it really changed the look of the car plus she couldn't be seen in it anymore. |

My wife doesn't like it cause she doesn't think it is safe. But she will ride in it in a pinch. Many years ago in a town far away.... a dad and his two kids died in a metro.... my wife still remembers and blames the geo.. |

At least you have the right perspective about it. I'd try to go along with it, but I certainly wouldn't put myself out in any way. Like if your only other choice of cars got 15 mpg, then she'd be walking a lot. Just cheerily say "okay, it's over ten miles, I'm going in the Metro" etc. |

My girlfriend, or my ex girlfriend of 36 hours, was dating me for 2 years and didn't like it. But I don;t blame her, my passenger side is hell. She'd only go with me if she felt 'adventerous'. Hahahaha damn, I already miss that. |

My wife wouldn't ride in it until our Cadillac died, and she had no choice. One ride sold her, fixing the AC kept her sold. As for looking dorky, since she and I have been together, I've had a fleet of dorky looking cars, about which she has been a really good sport! |
